Can I get a tax receipt for my gift?

Yes. Your emailed receipt is your record of the gift. It comes right after you give, and you do not need an account.

What the receipt shows

• The amount you gave, the drive, and the student it was for, if any.
• What was charged and the date.
• Whether you covered the fee.
• If the school or group is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, a line that says so, with its EIN when it is on file, and that no goods or services were given for the gift.

Good to know

• Monthly gifts get a new receipt each month.
• A pledge gets its receipt when it is charged, after the count.
• Store purchases get an order receipt. You got something back, so it is not a tax deductible gift.
• No 501(c)(3) line? Ask the school or group if your gift is tax deductible. Their name is on the receipt.
• Lost it? Search your email for "Thank you for your" and the group's name, or ask the group. They can see every gift.
• SizzleGo does not give tax advice. Ask a tax professional about your own return.
