How to Fill Out a Nonprofit Donation Receipt
- 1). Ensure that the charitable organization's logo appears on the receipt or that the receipt is on official letterhead. Absent this, the receipt is not considered qualified by the IRS.
- 2). Enter your name and the date of the donation.
- 3). List the amount of money you have donated to the charity or provide a description of the merchandise or goods donated. Create one line for each item.
- 4). Enter your best estimate of the value of your donation next to each item listed.
