A spot of good news which might help some of you fence-sitters make up your minds:
Greetings Erowid Members,
Great news! After two years of dealing with lawyers and red-tape,
the IRS finally approved our new organization "Erowid Center" as a
U.S. 501(c)(3) tax-deductible charitable organization. This is the
news we've been hoping to get! With this formal approval, donations
to Erowid Center are now tax-deductible.
Receiving IRS approval is a big step in our goal towards making the
Erowid project stable and sustainable over the long term. We hope
that it will help us continue to improve the quality and reliability
of available information about psychaoctive plants, chemicals,
technologies, and practices. We plan to begin Erowid Center's daily
operations on Jan 1, 2008 and will be sending out additional
information later about upcoming projects and what this change
means.
Erowid Center isn't yet set up to take donations by credit card, but
if you would like to make a tax-deductible donation by check in
2007, please email us at
[email protected]. We continue to be
able to take non-tax-deductible donations through the website as
usual, by credit card, PayPal, or check (
www.erowid.org/donations/).
As always, we can use your contributions!
We really appreciate the patience and support you have all shown us
through this process and over the past few years. Thanks from all
of us.
