HCRS Tax Receipting Changes in 2017
Halifax Cat Rescue Society is a registered charity in Nova Scotia, Canada. We offer tax receipts for donations of $20 and over.
In 2017, HCRS is implementing an electronic tax receipting process rather than paper copies. This is for a few reasons:
1. Volunteer time for hand written receipting is something that isn't necessary with electronic receipts; this will allow us to focus more on other aspects of rescue work.
2. Postage expense usually costs about $200 a year to mail our reciepts. This will be cut by about 90% when we do electronic tax receipts. (Paper receipts will still available upon request). That's one cat's vet bill saved.
3. Receipts will be emailed for the previous month's donations about 2 weeks into the following month when we do our bookkeeping and enter all donations into our system, making our issuing more frequent and consistent.
4. Adoption donations will be delivered more quickly so you can register your microchip information (you need your reciept and your vet record to do so).
If you have any questions about our receipting methods, feel free to fill out the form below to ask Maggie, the Treasurer. If you've gotten an emailed receipt but prefer a mailed one, please use the form on the right, below.
And most importantly, THANK YOU for considering a donation to our wee charity! We love our supporters!
