I have made a Freedom Pen Program section to my web site.

I have made a donations page which will allow donations to be made by credit card. These donations will go to my Pay Pal account which is also being used to collect for the bulk buy kit parts. This method allows for close tracking of the funds within the Pay Pay account tracking system and I have also constructed a Excel spread sheet to track all kit purchases, money transactions, etc.

Will there be some method that donations could be considered charitable
contributions and deductible from taxes?
I believe that there has to be some type of registration, but I don't know what that entails.

Larry,

This was discussed some last night in the chat. From my understanding the Freedom Pens Project will not be registered as a non profit program due to many things. Therefore there will not be, to my knowledge, a way to have the donations be tax deductible.

We have no plans to apply for charitable status therefore contributions are not tax deductible.
