The Project’s identity as an activity of The ANP should be explicitly stated on all printed materials, including letterhead, newsletters, brochures, fund raising appeals, press releases and web sites. This information is important to donors in protecting the tax-deductibility of their contributions. Projects do not have a legal identity as a nonprofit organization other than through The ANP, although we encourage all Projects to have a viable identity in the community.

For stationery/brochures/ printed materials and for the website:

 The [Project Name] is a Project of (or in affiliation  with)  The Alchemical Nursery Project, Inc (ANP), a non-profit public charity exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. 

 [Project Name]  is  a  Project  of The Alchemical Nursery Project, Inc (ANP), a registered public charity, which provides non-profit status. Your donation is fully tax-deductible.

For fundraising appeals:

 "[Project Name]  is  a  Project  of The Alchemical Nursery Project, Inc (ANP), a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Please make checks payable to “Alchemical Nursery Project/[Project name]”. If you are donating by credit card, please note that The Alchemical Nursery Project, Inc, or a variation of ANP, will show up on your credit card statement. Your donation is tax deductible."

 If Projects will be collecting donations via credit card, donors need to be made aware that SEE, not the Project name, will show up on their credit card statement.

Deposits/Revenue

All checks should be made payable to “Alchemical Nursery Project/[Project Name]”. ANP’s name must appear on all checks in order for the donor’s contribution to be tax-deductible and they  can be deposited into ANP’s credit union account. Any Project income (cash, checks, money orders, etc.) that is to be deposited must be sent to ANP. This ensures the tax deduction of eligible contributions. We need to know where and from whom the funds originated, be it an individual donation, foundation grant, fundraiser, memberships, sales  of merchandise, etc. Projects must attach a brief note explaining the origin of each fund source.
