National School Chaplain Association

Donation Policy

1.  Donations Irrevocable. National School Chaplain Association is a recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Therefore, Tax-deductible contributions must be irrevocable; therefore, all donations and trainings are nonrefundable and nontransferable.

3. Deputized Fundraising. National School Chaplain Association utilizes the accepted practice called “deputized fundraising” to raise donations to support many of our activities. Individuals who desire to join NSCA staff or to be involved in other projects, programs, or activities, become fundraisers for NSCA with the mutual intention of participating under NSCA’s direction in carrying out the purpose(s) for which they are appealing for donations. It is acceptable practice to agree on and monitor success toward individual and project fundraising goals. However, as the qualified “charity,” NSCA must maintain discretion and control over the use of all tax-deductible contributions without any obligation to directly benefit the fundraiser or any other individual.

2. Unrestricted and Restricted Donations. National School Chaplain Association (NSCA) gratefully accepts contributions to support our overall ministry and also recognizes the desire by some donors for NSCA to restrict the use of their donations to specified purposes. Restricted donations are used to support the purpose for which they were originally intended until that purpose has been satisfied. After which, any excess funds are used to further the ministries of NSCA.

4. Financials. These financials include operations worldwide and are not limited to NSCA US operations.

5. Reporting to Donors. Donors will receive acknowledgements during the year confirming the amounts and dates of gifts as well as calendar year-end tax receipts documenting such gifts as deductible contributions for income tax purposes in the United States. Each donor is advised to consult his or her personal income tax advisor for the applicability of such contributions in his or her own circumstances.
