I think it's very important for Americans who want to give to provide cash to organizations that will be able to focus resources and assets to meet specific needs. In other words, a lot of times Americans, in their desire to help, will send blankets or clothes. That may be necessary, but to me it makes more sense to send cash to organizations that could then use that cash to make sure we match resources with specific needs on the ground. There are many NGOs now involved that understand what is specifically needed to meet the needs of these countries. - President George Bush

We are donating $100 tomorrow and I'm wondering
if Anyone knows of a Charity that is in immediate need. Any Country. Some Charities are clogged up with money. Some are not. In any event the estimated number of homeless is at 5,000,000! Can we do enough? |

Thanks to a new bill passed by US Congress, cash gifts (credit card, check or cash) made through Jan. 31, 2005 for tsunami disaster relief are eligible for a tax deduction on your 2004 return. Great I get paid again @ the 25th.  |

one more time...
If you are a US citizen, you can claim a charitable tax deduction on your 2004 tax returns for tsunami disaster relief-related cash donations you make before January 31, 2005. In other words, you can donate money today [2005] and claim the donation on last year's [2004] tax returns http://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog/2005/01/new_law_allows_.html Robert |
