[Hidden-tech] web design for the Northampton Survival Center

[SynergyPlanUS]

Re: [Hidden-tech] web design for the Northampton Survival CenterIt is nice to see someone is not looking for the IRS as the guiding star of doing what is right.

There is a wealth of talent in this area that could and should help organizations like the Northampton Survival Center.  We should be actively looking for these kinds of opportunities to help. Perhaps this is a wakeup call.  Considerations of the IRS aside, the NSC (Northampton Survival Center) really does need to have its website upgraded.  The result will create benefits to everyone.  If we were wise, this should be a collaborative project bringing in the best of Hidden Tech.  The results cold be astonishing.

  An old former IRS agent told me that I could deduct 100% of any money earned on a job I did for free for a not for profit. Another words, I didn't earn anything, so I don't have to pay taxes on something I didn't earn. If I also didn't pay anything out (like I would when I give money to charity) it's all even. People should be donating their time because they believe in the cause, not because they night get something back from Uncle Sam.

    As unfair as this may seem, that's what a tax accountant told me. Then, a tax lawyer said just the opposite. Go figure (sorry).
     
    I think the not-deductible answer is correct, however.

      If by 'donated is not tax deductable' you mean you can't write off what  you don't receive, yes,
      you can not write off as a loss what you would have  made for the same work as fully billable time.
      (I am not an accountant -  but etc etc etc on tv)...
