Donate your baby items for tax break!
September 10th, 2008 by admin
To start, search through the used baby clothing and place it into piles. Some of the clothes will likely be in excellent condition, and some may even have the sales tags on them. If any are damaged and cannot be repaired, throw them out. You will want to sort through the rest of the baby clothes by their current condition; used, slightly used or worn. The clothing should also be sorted by size and/or the age of the baby such as 0-3 months, 3-6 months, etc. After you have sorted the baby clothing, you need to consider which route you will use to dispose of the items.
Donate the items to a charity, consider charities that are local to your hometown that work with children and families. Call to find out where you can drop the clothing off, what types of used clothing they accept and whether they provide a receipt. The receipt is needed when you file your taxes, as you may be able to take advantage of a tax break the following year.
