In general, a well put together donation receipt should include the nonprofit organization's basic information such as name, the donation date, the donation amount, and a statement indicating that the organization is indeed an official nonprofit with their corresponding nonprofit ID nonprofit listed.
As an officially registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity, issuing donation receipts is an essential part of your fundraising process. These receipts not only commemorate the kindness of your donations, but they also function as crucial tax evidence.
However, no matter the form, every receipt must include six items to meet the standards set forth by the IRS. Name of the Charity and Name of the Donor. Date of the Contribution. Detailed Description of the Property Donated. Amount of the Contribution.
