Support the Cause and Make a Difference
There are several convenient ways to make your charitable donations
Cawayne Barton Foundation accepts several forms of donations, namely time, money, and items. Through the efforts of volunteers like yourself. We believe that volunteering is a worthy way to contribute to the community and can be just as valuable as cash donations. “Donate your time” to help out mentoring, lecturing, teaching, or community project saving the cost of work that helps the community. Register with the skills registry and share your talents with someone in need.
“Donate your supplies” we accept donated goods, including tools, clothes, shoes, furniture, and cars. If you have some stuff to get rid of, consider giving it to a good cause rather than throwing it out.
“Donate your money” cash donations are qualified as tax-deductible expenses that can reduce your taxable income and lower your tax bill.
Cash donations of less than $250, requires a canceled check or a receipt from the foundation, with the amount and the date of the contribution. However, contributions of more than $250 require written documentation from the foundation.

The importance of giving back can never be understated and your contribution will go a long way in changing the lives of people who are not as fortunate and find themselves at disportionally disadvantage and disenfranchized citizens around the globe.
The foundation will work with communities around the globe in identifying projects to rebuild schools, creating information resources and skill training facilities to educate and empower the citizens within the region. We will use a combination of social media feedback, user communities and foundation board of directors in deciding which project to embark on. All details will be made available for the selected project and users will get to help in the decision making process, from the design selection to the layout of facilities and program offerings.
Tax Incentive Donation

Your tax benefits will depend on several factors, including the type of gift, whether it is outright or deferred, or has any income payments. Outright gifts generate a charitable deduction generally based on their fair market value, less the fair market value of any goods/services received (e.g., the value of a meal at a fundraising event.)
