Each letter should include the following information: The donor's name. The full legal name of your organization. A declaration of your organization's tax-exempt status. Your organization's employer identification number. The date the gift was received. A description of the gift and the amount received.
Example 2: Individual Acknowledgment Letter Hi donor name, We're super grateful for your contribution of $250 to nonprofit's name on date received. As a thank you, we sent you a T-shirt with an estimated fair market value of $25 in exchange for your contribution.
Ing to the IRS, any kind of donation above $250 should require a donation receipt. The same applies to stock gifts/donations.
Write in the total fair market value of your donation. This value is determined by you, the donor. Goodwill provides a donation value guide to help determine fair market value. Please note: Goodwill employees cannot help determine fair market value.
Donation receipts, or donation tax receipts, provide official documentation of a gift made by a donor. Often written in the form of an acknowledgment letter, they let the donor know that their donation has been received and allow the nonprofit to express its gratitude.
