Income Tax Deduction
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allows a deduction on income taxes for expenses incurred while conducting work for a non-profit organization. Since the New Mexico Breeding Bird Atlas Project is a non-profit organization, expenses such as motels, food, telephone calls, postage, copying, entrance fees, and mileage are deductible as contributions. Be sure to keep accurate and detailed records with receipts in the event of an IRS audit.
