Furthermore, auctions give nonprofit organizations the unique ability to tap into “household spending” dollars which compose 66% of the GNP compared to the only 2% allocated to “charitable giving” (Making Auctions Work Best for Corporate Sponsors and Fundraisers).

Thanks so much to Alexander Garbera for asking a great question in response to our last post on using the internet to fundraise. I'll do my best to answer it here.
Let me start out this post by saying up front that if you have any questions about taxes, you should definitely consult a professional - a CPA or a tax attorney, for example. |
