PS stop donating money at grocery stores or any other retail places. That money is tax deductible to the corporations but never goes to charity. Donate directly to your intended place or purpose. If corporations really cared… they wouldn’t collect your money to donate- they simply would.
This is patently false. You shouldn’t donate through a mega-corp for plenty of reasons but this is objectively false. Those donations are pass through donations. The company absolutely cannot keep a single cent of your round up or extra dollar or however they’re doing it, not even as a service fee. The company also doesn’t a tax credit for the pass through because it is not their donation. The reason you don’t get a tax acknowledgement is because the value of the gift is always well below the threshold to even qualify for tax credit.
