Title: Does JTF have a PO Box to send donations? What is it?
Post by: Ari Ben-Canaan on September 15, 2010, 02:46:52 PM
I do not do the Paypal thing.

Do I make it out to "Jewish Task Force", or, ""Hayamin Haamiti" [or something else]?

Thanks.  :)

Your question stands, but I think you meant Voice of Jewish Activism (VJA)...

Is there really no way to make donations tax-deductible for JTFers who pay taxes in Europe ?
I am not wealthy and the amount of my donations is highly dependent on my ability to deduce them (partly) from the taxes I pay.

I am not a tax specialist but I think it would be difficult for JTF to have charitable donation status in other countries besides America... I guess it would require an initial filing and then some sort of yearly or quarterly income report... Filings like that would start to run into big money and may even be counter productive... It's nice to be able to write donations off at tax time however here in America the amount that actually reaches the bottom line really doesn't get me all that excited when all is said and done... If I am giving to a charity or cause it's because I want to... If its deductible it's an added plus however if its not it's not.

Thank you for your answer, I understand it is not worthwhile now. However, lecturing me in your two last sentences was not necessary. I was asking not because I don't want to spend a penny on my own, but because I figured it could be a way to give more.

I had not intended the last two sentences to be a lecture its just my point of view... What can I tell you... Sorry if you took it that way.

In the next year when i get back into the money side of things, ive wanted to make cheque donations to jtf. But this may seem like a really stupid question, but i live in the uk where the currency is pounds not dollas. Is it still okay to send the cheque to america in englush pounds??

Plus is there anyway i could get a confirmation that my cheque reaches jtf??

Sorry for the questions, but ive been meaning to donate for a long time now.
