edit: you should also know that you should just donate directly to the charity, but I thought that was common knowledge

Apparently the idea that it gives corporations a tax break is a misconception, rather, YOU get the tax break! edit: yes you have to have receipts, thought that was common knowledge and didn’t think i needed a disclaimer

Thanks to @[email protected], @[email protected], and @[email protected] for that info!

    The corp doesn’t get the tax break either way.

    You only get it if you claim it (in the US), of course. Nobody is tracking that for you.

      Oh, well that’s on me for only reading the headline then (and assuming the worst from corpos at every step).
