Falling Into Tax- Receipt Season

Tax receipt season is upon us! In the next month or two, lots of organizations will be issuing end-of-year tax receipts.

There has, however, been a wave of a donor-responsible approach to issuing tax-receipts and we are impressed with how many organizations are taking it. Curious? We’re here to answer any questions on the trending approach.

Issuing tax receipts no matter what? Get a head start by spending some time cleaning up your data using the Duplicate Constituent Manager and cleaning up constituent salutations.
