Are donations tax free?

This is probably a question for Tibby, but I'm incognegro all weekend, but have a few outfitters I want to call next week about donating hunts. Can they write these off for tax purposes at what they sell for? Also, if they do decide to donate a hunt or fishing trip, do I need to get them some kind of reciept for their returns?

Also, if somebody wants to make a cash donation but can't attend or wants to underwrite, I'm assuming I also need to get them some kind of reciept?

Thanks.

Andy, any kind of donation to a 501 C3 is a tax write off. I would venture to say most outfitters do it for name recognition to spur business.

I'm not sure what form Delta has, but most conservation groups have donor form which lists out what they donated and for what amount the trip or item is valued at. I know for sure CCA & DU does, so I'm sure Delta will hook us up!!

Hope that helps!!
