IN KIND DONATIONS
In-kind donations are accepted at Under the Rainbow Resale Shop.
You can download and use our In-Kind Donation Form if you plan to use your donation as a deduction on your income taxes. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires donors to value their items rather than the recipient. As a guide, the form provides ranges for items commonly sold in thrift/resale stores. Assume the items are in good condition, and remember - prices are only estimated values.
Please understand that Underground Railroad, Inc. does not provide tax advice, and we recommend that you check with a tax professional if you are seeking tax advice.
