donations to The Friends of Jewish Dokshitsy, Inc.

Information for family and other foundations, charitable organizations, corporations, and employer and other matching grants follows.                      

Contact us for questions.

    Although The Friends of Jewish Dokshitsy is a Massachusetts non-profit organization, and its preservation and other activities are for the public good,  it does not have 501c3 status.  Fortunately, with the help of Commissioner Martin Gold, donations made to The United States Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad,  which are earmarked to the Dokshitsy Project  which will then be  passed through  to the Friends. The Commission was created by Congress to help with these kinds of projects.  Click on the letter from the Commission .


Foundations may prefer to mail donations directly to the Commission.


Here is the complete wording from their website about donations, with the relevant passage in bold:


    Since the Commission is a United States Government agency, contributions to it qualify for the charitable contribution deduction for federal income, estate and gift tax purposes. Contributions made by private foundations meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code regarding qualifying distributions.

 the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad
