This handbook is written in order to clear up the misunderstanding and mystery surrounding income tax benefits to donors who contribute to PBOs. We look into the ins and outs and the whats and whys of 18A tax certificates. We also provide the legal basis for them in layman’s language. In addition, we outline the benefits to the PBO and its donors with graphic illustrations. Section 18Adonations can be used for specific activities only, and we list these for you and inform you of activities for which you cannot issue 18A tax receipts. You will see the easy-peasy way to generate 18A tax certificates and how to use these certificates for fundraising, and much more.
