What charity give the highest percentage of their proceeds to their cause?
Q. We are constantly beseiged with phone calls from charities, and would like to know the best and the worst to give what little $ we have for charity. Also- which as the richest CEO's, etc.?
Asked by ol' hippy girl - Thu Aug 28 21:38:12 2008 - - 2 Answers - 2 Comments
A. I have heard that in general, churches use the money more wisely and generously for charitable causes. I don't have conclusive evidence of that, but I have heard it from fairly reliable sources. Doing some real research would answer that for sure. I also recently heard that that was (and is still) the case for Katrina victims. It makes sense too, because you seldom see a priest or preacher driving around in a Lexus. (Of course, there are the money-grubbing phonies who cast a bad light on the real good people, but I'm talking about the general rule, not the exceptions.) And I do see a LOT of church groups doing good things...i.e. volunteering. BTW, I've also heard that the people to be MOST cautious of are the phone solicitors. … [cont.]

How does charity donations etc affect the tax paid by businesses?
Q. I am looking to gain sponsorship/donations for my charity marathon. When i ask businesses for donations etc, what is there incentive? Do they recieve tax breaks? How much and how much money would they need to donate?
Asked by daviebhoy69 - Tue Feb 5 06:38:46 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. As I have previously advised you, businesses can only claim a deduction for expenditure incurred in the course of business and so sponsorship would normally be included in the advertising budget. It doesn't matter how much this comes to. An individual in business would receive higher rate tax relief (assuming they are a higher rate taxpayer) if they Gift Aided the money - but they could do that without sponsoring you.

There are other smaller rescues that don't seem to see the problem with breeding, or they just keep quiet about it. Don't understand that, to make a change you need to look at the bigger picture.

A. Yes many nonprofits start that way. However it is generally better and more likely to start with a nonprofit that knows you and where you know the group personally as your financial agent vs a large organization that would find it hard to know if you are honest and what you are doing with the money. For ex many such groups start with their church or a nonprofit in their community as the financial agent. It is best to have a written agreement detailing responsibilities. In most such agreements the charity that is the financial agent does make a small charge for accounting etc. which is reasonable because there is work and supervision and a lot of responsibility involved for them. once the new group is established and knows what it is… [cont.]

When throwing a charity event, are you supposed to give them all the money?
Q. I'm planning an art show for later in the year. It will consist of 30-35 artists work and I would like to have it as a charity event, but I was only going to have a percentage of the money from any purchased art go to the charity and the rest would go to the artists. Is that wrong? How do these things usually work? I don't wanna look like a schmuck especially since there are some pretty big celebrities associated with the charity I'm considering.

A. As long as you advertise what percentage is for charity. Your ads could say 25% of all proceeds will be donated to "Name Your Charity" Make sure you have the written permission of the charity to collect monies in their name

Q. I'm planning an art show for later in the year. It will consist of 30-35 artists work and I would like to have it as a charity event, but I was only going to have a percentage of the money from any purchased art go to the charity and the rest would go to the artists.
