In-Kind Gifts
Many individuals and businesses may be able to provide substantial assistance by gifting goods (for example, office computers, certain medical supplies and equipment) that can be used in PRASAD's work.
These special gifts free up funds that would have been used by PRASAD to purchase the gifted items and in many cases, the donor can purchase the goods at a lower cost than PRASAD can, given existing supplier relationships or volume purchasing arrangements. If you are considering giving an in-kind gift to PRASAD, it is important to review your plans with The PRASAD Project office to determine if the gift can be used at this time and if it meets certain acceptance guidelines or specifications.
There are special rules surrounding the tax deductibility of goods gifted for charitable purposes. The general rule is that goods are contributed at the cost basis paid for them by the donor. For specific rules governing an anticipated contribution, you should consult with your tax or legal counsel along with The PRASAD Project office.
Consult with your financial planner, accountant and/or attorney to determine which categories best fit your individual and family situation.
For donation assistance please call 845.434.0376 or send an email message to development@prasad.org.
