[olpc-help] documentation of donation for IRS

[Larry J. Maltin]

Last year, the rules for certain charitable contributions were 
tightened. Starting 2007, charitable contributions of cash to any 
qualified charity must be supported by a dated bank record (such as a 
canceled check) or a dated receipt from the charity (such as OLPC) that 
must include the name of the charity, date and the amount of the 
contribution. Our word as taxpayer no longer counts, we need proof. When 
will OLPC be sending documentation? It is only a short time till tax day.

Cheers,
Larry
