Does Faith Direct send statements for individual donations of $250 or greater?

Faith Direct does not send separate letters/emails for each contribution of $250 or more.  This is a common misinterpretation of the IRS requirements available here - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1771.pdf.

Reporting requirements: A donor cannot claim a tax deduction for any single contribution of $250 or more unless the donor obtains a contemporaneous, written acknowledgment of the contribution from the recipient organization. An organization that does not acknowledge a contribution incurs no penalty; but, without a written acknowledgment, the donor cannot claim the tax deduction. 

Individual Statements: A separate acknowledgment may be provided for each single contribution of $250 or more, or one acknowledgment, such as an annual summary, may be used to substantiate several single contributions of $250 or more.
