That is a good question. And a timely one for us as well. We are looking at revamping our Corporate membership program to include more benefits, but at a substantially higher cost. Since the benefits have a clear dollar value, how much can the corporations claim as tax write off?

Subject: Membership tax benefits
Can anyone share how they handle their tax receipts fro membership benefits? What is tax-deductible and what is not? A colleague and I were disagreeing about a percentage. I don't think that can be quantified so don't deduct a value. So what should we be deducting from the contribution? Mailing costs? Swag? Discounts? Tickets to events? Thanks!
