No goods or services were provided to you by the church in connection with any

benefits.
Please note: Many changes have been made by the IRS concerning appropriate record
keeping for contributions taken on a contributor’s tax return. To substantiate cash
contributions, regardless of the amount, the IRS requires the donor to maintain a bank
record or a written communication from the donee showing the name of the donee
organization and the date and amount of the contribution. The recordkeeping
requirements cannot be satisfied by maintaining other written records. Also, a donor who
claims a non-cash contribution to a charity must maintain reliable written records
regardless of its value or amount. If property other than cash is contributed, the donor
generally must maintain a receipt from the organization showing the name of the
organization, the date and location and a detailed description (but not the value) of the
property. Additional substantiation requirements apply to charitable contributions with a
value of $250 or more. If the total charitable deduction claimed for noncash property is
more than $500, an additional form should be prepared for the tax return. Under new law
