Getting a receipt every time you donate strengthens your tax records if you are audited. If you make a large donation and don't have (or can't find) the receipt, the donation will almost certainly be disallowed on audit. For this reason, it's best to set up a record-keeping system at the start of each year.
When you send a document for a financial contribution, do not title it ``Invoice.'' Your donor is not paying for a service received; he/she is investing in your organization's on-going efforts. ``Gift Notice'' or ``Donor Investment'' reads much better than invoice and shows respect.
Proof can be provided in the form of an official receipt or invoice from the receiving qualified charitable organization, but it can also be provided via credit card statements or other financial records detailing the donation.
What to include on your invoice for a charitable donation. The donor's name. The name of the nonprofit or charity (plus the gift officer's name and title, if applicable) The date that the donation was made. The donation amount. A signature from the nonprofit or charity that verifies the invoice.
Ing to the IRS, any kind of donation above $250 should require a donation receipt. The same applies to stock gifts/donations.

The invoice should include the following information: The nonprofit organization's name, address and contact information, including a phone number and email address. The recipient's name and contact information. Invoice number – this is a unique identifier used to track the invoice.
Craft a concise, direct donation message by clearly stating your cause, the impact of donations, and specific calls-to-action with emotional language. For example: "Your $25 gift provides a week of meals for a family in need. Text FEED to 55555 to More Meals today!"
