Year-end Gifts to Juniata Athletics: What you should know
Gifts made by check: The IRS states that the U.S. Postal Service postmark date serves as the official gift date for donations made by check and sent through U.S. Mail,. Therefore, the gift will be credited in 2011 so long as both postmark and check are dated no later than December 31. Please note that the IRS does not give the same treatment for postmarks provided on deliveries made by carriers such as Federal Express, UPS, etc.
Gifts made by credit card: A gift by credit card is complete on the day the card is charged. The gift is deductible in the year the charge is made. If you call or send a direction in a letter to charge a credit card in an envelope postmarked on or before December 31, 2011, but the university is not able to process the charge until after the first of the year, this gift is NOT considered deductible in 2011.
