Ira or Rip--Please help! My club has an unusual situation. At the end of 2002 we made a donation to one of my club member's church. The donation was for $30 and in the form of a check. We also claimed this charitable deduction on our taxes. As of today, the church has not cashed the check nor have any attempts to find out if they still had it and planned to cash it have been unsuccessful. The member is no longer affiliated. What do we do now? This money is still floating in our books while it was filed with the IRS last year. How do we handle this money? Can we assume the church did not want the check (go figure) and keep the money? If so, how are the books adjusted? Thanks in advance for your help. |
