From sponsoring meals, families, animals, or events, there are many opportunities to make a donation that is labeled as a sponsorship, but not all sponsorships are considered charitable donations in the eyes of the IRS.

Unless the project is a charity, no tax relief is available to the backer. If it is a charity, Gift Aid can be claimed, providing the relevant conditions are met. Note also that relief can be lost if a benefit is provided to the backer, with the limit depending on the amount of the donation.

How do I collect sponsorship/fundraising money? If your event is sponsored, an online fundraising page is the easiest and most efficient way to collect donations. Visit .justgiving.com/versusarthritis to set up your page. Once your page is set up, tell everyone you know about it so they can sponsor you.

Many fire departments and fire stations rely on donations to support their operations and purchase equipment and supplies. However, it's important to check with the specific fire department or station to confirm their policy on accepting donations and how they prefer to receive them.

The people who sponsor the participant are the donors and these are the people entitled to use Gift Aid to increase the value of the amount they pledge as sponsor money. The rules and requirements are the same as for any other gift of money.
