TOYS FOR TOTS
Q : Is my donation tax-deductible?
A : A donor does not need a special letter for tax purposes unless he/she makes a donation of money, toys, or services valued at $250.00 or more. For donations less than $250.00 a canceled check or store/business receipt is acceptable for IRS purposes. For donations of $250.00 or more that are address of the donor, the foundation will automatically forward a letter of receipt for that tax record of the donor.

A printout of your paypal donation that has the 8thcivic tee(s) can be kept for your records.
