What difference does tax deductibility make?

Any donation to the ASF of $2 or more is tax deductible.

The ability to claim a tax deduction means that the cost of donating to support a Campaign on the ASF platform is substantially reduced (typically by 16% to 45% depending on the donor’s tax rate).  



For example, if a donor donates $1,000 to the ASF for your project, they will receive a tax refund of $450 (based on the assumed top income tax rate of 45%), and therefore the actual cost of that donation will only be $550.
