Donation Acknowledgment Policy

1. Your Tax-Deductible Contribution

HarvestEdgeTools, Inc. is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit (EIN 41-5066584, approved April 24, 2026). Contributions to HarvestEdgeTools are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

You will receive the following acknowledgments depending on the size of your gift:

• $250 or more (single contribution): a contemporaneous written acknowledgment that includes the date, amount, our 501(c)(3) status, and a statement of whether any goods or services were provided in exchange. Provided no later than January 31 of the following year (often sooner).
• Over $75 (single payment) with goods/services exchanged: a written disclosure noting that your deductible amount is limited to the excess over the fair market value of what you received, with a good-faith FMV estimate.
• All donors: an annual giving statement by January 31 summarizing all your contributions for the prior year.

2. Monthly Partnership Donations ($5/month)

Standard Monthly Partnership Donations of $5.00/month ($60/year) fall below the $75 per-payment threshold for quid pro quo disclosure. As a Monthly Partner you receive:

• Access to the Factory system for AI-powered ministry-tool building
• Technical support via email
• Ownership of all tools built on your behalf
• Access to shared ministry frameworks (if opted in)

The tax-deductible portion of your monthly Partnership donation is pending attorney and CPA review of the fair market value of those services. Until that review concludes, please consult your tax advisor before claiming a specific deductible amount, and rely on the contemporaneous acknowledgment and annual statement you receive from us.

3. Larger Gifts and Non-Cash Contributions

One-time gifts of $250 or more receive a single written acknowledgment that satisfies both the $250 contemporaneous acknowledgment requirement and any $75+ quid pro quo disclosure requirement.

Non-cash contributions: We will acknowledge receipt and describe the property donated. Per IRS rules, we do not assign a value — that is the donor’s responsibility. For contributions claimed above $5,000, you are responsible for obtaining a qualified independent appraisal; we will sign IRS Form 8283 as donee.

4. Annual Giving Statement

Every donor receives an annual giving statement by January 31 of the year following the contributions, delivered to your email of record. Paper copies are available on request.

Each statement includes the organization’s legal name, address, and EIN; your name and Partner ministry name (where applicable); a summary of cash contributions by date and amount; a description of any non-cash contributions; goods-or-services statements where applicable; the aggregate deductible amount; 501(c)(3) status confirmation; and a tax-advisor consultation disclaimer.

5. Intangible Religious Benefits

Under IRS regulations, “intangible religious benefits” are excluded from the quid pro quo analysis. Any qualifying HarvestEdgeTools services that fall into this category — such as theological compliance review — are disregarded for deductibility purposes.

6. Payment Processing

• Processor: Stripe, Inc. HarvestEdgeTools does not store credit-card or bank details.
• Important: Stripe receipts are payment confirmations only, NOT IRS-compliant charitable acknowledgments. Please retain the separate acknowledgment we send you for $250+ gifts and the annual statement we send by January 31.
• Refunds: Donations are generally non-refundable. For payment-processing errors, contact [email protected] within 30 days for review.

7. State Compliance and Governing Law

HarvestEdgeTools complies with applicable state charitable-solicitation registration requirements. This policy is governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable federal tax law.
