For too many professional fundraisers, the joy of a successful year-end giving campaign is quickly dulled when the clock strikes midnight on December 31. Because that’s when our attention turns from accepting gifts to acknowledging them.  And, depending on the size of your nonprofit, gathering the basic information you need to send donor tax statement letters may feel like a herculean task.  

The Internal Revenue Service requires nonprofits in the Unites States to send a written acknowledgment to a donor for any contribution of $250 or more.  

The letter has certain requirements as to what language must be included – which leads far too many nonprofits to send dry, boring, legal-sounding letters.
