Host an event - General tax receipt information

The Foundation can provide tax receipts only if:

1. You have submitted an Event Proposal Form and been given approval by a development coordinator from the Foundation.
2. You provide a complete and legible list of donors:
   • first and last name
   • address, including city and postal code
   • amount given
   • amount tax receipt to be issued for
   • list and value of any benefits received for donation (Fair Market Value)
3. The tax receipt information and donations are received within 60 days of your event
   Note: Tax receipts dated for the year of your event can only be issued if all money and information is received by December 1st of that year.
4. The donation is $20.00 or greater
5. The tax receipt is being issued to the person who made the donation (unless the cheque issuer acts as a donation collector and issues a complete list of donor details and amount given)
6. The rules and regulations additionally outlined for your specific type of event are followed

A business gift letter can always be provided to sponsors or other corporate contributors as proof of payment. Often, a charitable tax receipt is neither required nor appropriate for this group of contributors.
