• The current main page includes the text "GNOME Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, and your donation is considered charitable to the extent of applicable law. Consult your tax preparer to determine tax-deductibility." I don't really like the legalese here, particularly "to the extend of applicable law" - I certainly don't know what it means. And "tax preparer" is an odd term. And a lot of people don't have a "tax preparer" - it would be good to give an indication of how they might proceed to claim the tax back. Is this valid only for the US? Or also in other parts of the world? This is how gov.uk [1] phrases it: "Donations by individuals to charity or to community amateur sports clubs (CASCs) are tax free. This is called tax relief." And American Red Cross [2]: "$10.00 is the minimum online donation. All donations are tax deductible." Maybe something like: "The GNOME Foundation is a non-profit organization and if you live in the US your donation is tax free. Contact your tax office for more information." 1. https://www.gov.uk/donating-to-charity 2. https://www.redcross.org/donate/nn-0116?campname=donate&campmedium=aspot_unassigned - Andreas |
