Can you accept donations in the form of actual currency?Can you accept donations in the form of actual currency?
Unfortunately, the answer is NO. We cannot accept and process donations in the form of hard currency for this reason: there is no way to certify that the person we are issuing the receipt to is actually the donor without the paper trail that a check or money order provides. We must be very strict about this since we can get in big trouble with the IRS if we issue receipts to donors who didn’t actually contribute to us.
