Can an IPC issue tax deduction receipt (TDR) to a third-party fundraiser, who then gives the TDR to the donors?

Question

Accepted Answer

Only IPCs are allowed to issue TDRs and they should be issuing them to the donors directly. For proper accountability, the IPC should be collecting all donations and then pay the fund-raiser any fees that were agreed upon previously in a written contract. Should the fund-raiser then wish to donate a portion of this fee back to the IPC, a TDR can then be issued.
