Omaha Rapid Response (ORR) is morally committed to honor the
intention/designation of every gift. However, in accordance with IRS
requirements for non-profit organizations, ORR cannot permit the receipting of
charitable, tax-deductible gifts that are restricted by the donor for a specific
purpose. If a donor gives to ORR, in compliance with IRS code, the donor
releases all dominion and control of the donation. The IRS requires that ORR
have the power to modify any restriction or designation if, in its sole
judgment, such restriction becomes, in effect, unnecessary, incapable of
fulfillment, or inconsistent with the charitable purposes of Omaha Rapid
Response.
There are a number of ways to be involved with Omaha Rapid Response.
