in-kind donations
Donated goods, not money
In-kind donations are contributions of goods or services rather than money.
A company donates office furniture, a restaurant provides catering for a fundraiser, a lawyer offers free legal advice—all are in-kind donations.
The shelter relies on in-kind donations of blankets and canned food.
For tax purposes, donors must estimate the fair market value of what they give.
