Making Donations - Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get a tax receipt?

Each campaign is different. If the campaign is tax deductible, it should be stated clearly in the campaign description.

Most campaigns that provide tax receipts only provide U.S tax receipts.

How will my donation appear on my bank statement?

Each campaign will be different depending on the title of the campaign, but it will begin with “TCF*”, and then followed by the title of the campaign.

Could I give an anonymous donation?

Yes, just be sure to check off the anonymous box on the donation form.

I forgot to click anonymous, what should I do?

Email support@thechesedfund.com, provide your name, email, and the title of the campaign you donated to, and we will change it for you.


Q: Are verified campaigns tax deductible?

A: There is no direct correlation between a campaign's verification status and its tax deductible status. Tax Deductible status is determined by the IRS, while The Chesed Fund's verification process attempts to ascertain that all the facts in a campaign are true, regardless of whether you'd receive a tax deductible receipt if you donated to that campaign.
