A Boy Scouts of America donation receipt is an official note detailing a contribution made to the Boy Scouts of America. Since the Boy Scouts of America is a 501(c)(3) organization, all contributions made are fully tax deductible to the maximum amount allowed by law. In case the IRS requests proof of a donation given to the Boy Scouts, it’s important to have a donation receipt and keep the record stored away until taxes are paid for the tax year in which the donation was given.
Tax Identification Number (EIN) – Depends on the local troop.
Donation Methods
Online (via Credit Card) – Donations can be made to a variety of different causes within the organization of Boy Scouts of America. From giving to the general cause to sending a scout to camp, donations can be customized to the donor’s preference.
Locally – When giving property, donors should contact their local council via searching by zip code which will render the contact information of the nearest location.
