Donations

Postby the scar » Sat Dec 29, 2012 6:28 pm

The stores I visit in petaluma Safeway, Cvs, K-Mart ,ect are always asking for donations for verious causes.However I never see a sign posted saying our customers donated X amount of money for Breast Cancer or whatever cause. Do these companys donate our donations in there name and get a tax write off ? :? :?: I would really like to know,the managers dont have any idea !!

Although I'm sure all the money goes to good causes, it's all about PR for these stores and making us think they support the local community.

Excellent question about the tax deduction, Mr. Scar!
