FAACII INC is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) public charity. Contributions are generally tax-deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and New York generally follows federal charitable-contribution rules for state itemized deductions. Your actual deduction depends on your individual tax situation, whether you qualify to claim the deduction, and whether you received any goods or services in exchange for your donation. If you receive goods or services in return, only the amount that exceeds their fair market value may be deductible. We can provide a written acknowledgment for your records; for donations of $250 or more, donors generally need that acknowledgment to claim a federal deduction.

Your donation supports FAACII’s charitable mission, including educational initiatives, cultural programming, outreach, and the operations needed to carry out that work. If you make a gift for a specific approved purpose, we will use it in accordance with that designation. New York’s Charities Bureau oversees nonprofit organizations and fundraisers, protects donors, and helps ensure that charitable donations are used as the donor intended; charities operating in New York are generally required to register and file annual financial reports with the Attorney General.

Yes. We welcome volunteers, partners, and supporters who want to help with programs, events, outreach, and community engagement. Please contact us at contact@faacii.org to learn about current opportunities. Please note that the value of volunteer time or services is not tax-deductible, although certain unreimbursed out-of-pocket expenses directly connected with volunteer service may be deductible if otherwise allowed by law.

We may accept certain in-kind donations that support our mission, subject to review for usefulness, storage, condition, and legal or administrative requirements. Please contact us before sending any items so we can confirm whether we are able to accept them. For tax purposes, donors are generally responsible for determining the value of donated property. If a donor claims more than $500 in total noncash charitable deductions, Form 8283 is generally required; for donated property valued at more than $5,000 per item or group of similar items, a qualified appraisal is generally required.

Yes. You may make a gift in honor or in memory of someone. If you would like us to notify a family member or honoree, please provide their name and mailing or email address when you donate. The donation acknowledgment for tax records is issued to the donor.
