Projects sponsored by Compass Charitable Partners are responsible for raising all of their own financial support. Compass does not assist in fundraising activities for projects. Donors to a project sponsored by Compass are giving to a 501(c)(3) public charity, assuming they route their donations through Compass. Therefore, such gifts are generally tax-deductible to the donor.
Compass recommends projects include the following language in its written solicitations to prospective donors:
“(Project Name) is a charitable project under the fiscal sponsorship of Compass Charitable Partners, a 501(c)(3) organization located in Nashville, Tennessee. All donations made via credit/debit card or check directly to Compass Charitable Partners, designated to (Project Name), will receive full tax-deductibility to the extent allowable under federal law.”
