<div><span>but it saves the Treasurer from having to get cheques cut. which would add latency to getting things done. It'll still be deductible - it just might not show up until the end of year Donation Receipt.<br></span></div>

The downside to this is how do you make it tax deductible? Generally<br>when you donate to a non-profit you get a receipt in case for an<br>audit.<br><br> </div></div> </div> </div></div><br> </blockquote></div></div><br></div> </div> </div></body></html>
