Donations

Your donation is managed by Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer, a 501(c)(3) public charity. Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer (“WOKC”) makes every reasonable effort to respect the wishes of its donors. However, to comply with federal tax laws and Internal Revenue Service regulations, WOKC must retain the exclusive authority, discretion, and legal control over all donated funds. In the rare event that the charity you have advised does not satisfy WOKC criteria or otherwise enable WOKC to disburse your donation(s) (reasons for this include issues like: they do not or cannot accept donations, are not recognized by the IRS as a public charity, or are not in good standing with federal or state regulators, etc.), WOKC may select an alternate nonprofit organization to receive the donation or have the donation allocated to a fund maintained by WOKC and used solely for charitable purposes, including, but not limited to, mission-based activities and grants.

WOKC distributions to or for the benefit of your advised charity and/or purpose must not be used for the personal benefit of you, or any other donor advisor, or any other purpose conferring impermissible private benefit.

Receipt of Charitable Donation
WOKC shall make a receipt of your charitable donations accessible to you so that you may be able to substantiate, as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, your charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. While WOKC will use its commercially reasonable best effort to provide the appropriate documentation for your contribution to qualify as a tax deduction, WOKC does not represent, warrant, or guarantee that you will receive such documentation or that the IRS will ultimately recognize your contribution as being tax deductible.

Permitted Uses by Organization Administrators

(vii) if you receive notice that your tax-exempt status has been revoked and you, the organization administrator, have previously created an account on WOKC Services, you are subject to the requirements in section (vi) above. You must provide WOKC Services with an express written statement as described in section (vi) above within 14 days of your notice of revocation.
