If you want to take a charitable contribution deduction on your income-tax return, you need to substantiate your gifts. You must have the charity's written acknowledgment for any charitable deduction of $250 or more. A canceled check is not enough to support your deduction.
An IRS-qualified appraisal is required for in-kind contributions (other than publicly traded securities) valued in excess of $5,000. The donor must complete and file IRS Form 8283 when the amount of his or her deduction for all noncash gifts is more than $500 for the year.
Record In-Kind Donations Once fair market value is determined, nonprofits are required to record the value of each in-kind donation during the reporting period in which the item or service was given — annually, at minimum.
