Donation - Gift-In-Kind

This service provides a request for the creation and acknowledgment of a Gift-In-Kind transaction.

Gifts-in-kind, also referred to as in-kind donations, is a kind of charitable giving in which, instead of giving money to buy needed goods and services, the goods and services themselves are given. Gifts in kind are distinguished from gifts of cash or stock.

A donor may deduct an in-kind (or, non-cash) donation as a charitable contribution. It is the responsibility of the donor to furnish documentation on the value of the in-kind donation to the IRS.  The donor must also obtain a written acknowledgment from the charity to substantiate the gift.  Barry supplies acknowledgments detailing the donation but places no value on it.

Refer to the Gifts Acceptance Policy (6.01) for more information.
