how do I receive a tax receipt for food, supplies, and service donations?
We respect the right of any donor to request a tax receipt. If a tax receipt is requested for donated goods or services, Winnipeg Harvest will purchase the merchandise (at fair market value) from the individual or company by paying an invoice issued by the donor. The donor then has the option of either of the following:
- Making a cash donation to Winnipeg Harvest equaling the value of the invoice and a tax receipt will be issued.
Or
- Endorsing our payment cheque back to Winnipeg Harvest as a cash donation and a tax receipt will be issued.
Please note that the tax receipt must go to the individual or company who issues the invoice. Revenue Canada does not allow third party involvement in this process.
Winnipeg Harvest appreciates the tremendous support that we receive from the community each year. We could not hope to meet the need within our community without the support of our many donors.
Winnipeg Harvest has trained staff to assist you with your tax receipt. Please call Karen at 982-3588 for more information.
