I donate a fair bit of money relative to my income bracket. Sometimes it's directly to places that need it. Sometimes it's by donating goods instead of money. Sometimes it's by entering raffles at work, or buying candy from kids at the store, or a coupon book from veterans.
And sometimes it's by donating at the till. Look, corpos suck. But one of the only good things they do is solicit donations at the till.
Stores process thousands and thousands of transactions a day, and if even only a handful of those people decide to round up or add a little bit more on top, it adds up to so much money for good causes that I guarantee would not otherwise ever get donated.
And please, please can we put this myth to rest: in no country that I am aware of can a company claim your donations on their taxes. Those donations are yours and yes, you can claim them on your taxes if you are willing to do the work of keeping the receipt and itemizing your deductions. I do this every single year.
Fwiw in Australia only donations over $2 are tax deductible. So round-up donations probably aren't, unless you're rounding from $47.95 to $50 or something.
Good to know, thanks!
They don't claim it on their taxes, they claim it in marketing
Correct, and I did not repudiate that. It is a bargain that I think is worth striking.
