Yes, indeed they are. The Minnesota Veterinary Historical Museum was organized in 1985 as a non-profit corporation and any donation or contribution should be considered tax deductible. A problem that you may face will be establishing the value of items donated. The IRS will not recognize appraisals by members of the museum staff because they say we are an interested party. Your tax consultant should be able to help you on this. For updates on their Fund Drive and other historical museum information please click below http://hist.cvm.umn.edu. For what purpose will these memorabilia be used?
