Is permission needed to use the senior gossip center for things other than senior gossip business? And if so, who actually gives that permission?

Where is the accountability ...
Lisa, why are you so upset that town residents came together to help another town resident out ? Any town resident can make arrangements to use the Senior Center .. just call the center and ask to reserve a date.

person named....many questions and not any answers.....and isn't there something that says an employee for the government can only receive $25.00 in gratuities???....that's what I heard.....so what makes this any different.....
When is all this fraud going to stop???....and the perps getting away with it???....because they are who they are??? and connected to ??....

DVOR.....apparently you think this is LD......I repeat it is not.....and stop thinking it was the community that got together for this.....
There is no reason why there cannot be an accountability....if it was a community event then the community deserves to know the outcome....
What is right and just and fair to all ...that's what this is about.....give money to those who really need it....
Well the community certainly turned out to support this family in need -- and yes it was a community event. Since those who gave - gave VOLUNTARILY - who are you to tell us what to do with our money? And who are you tell us what is right and just and fair ?
As for accountability. just ask -- and you will find out how much was raised -- I asked and I found out.

The recipient of the money has to pay the taxes. That is the law!!

I believe it is considered a charitable donation - which is non-taxable or gift - which would only be taxable if it exceeded a certain dollar value (which it did not).
It is interesting how so many nayboobs are also heartless, cheap assed bastards who take offense at neighbors helping neighbors.

Fundraising Tax Information
July 18, 2008ShareThis
In addition to federal tax laws regarding “additional income,” you may be liable for state and local taxes on the earnings from your fundraiser. Even if your organization is classified under 501(c) as federally tax-exempt, you may need to pay other taxes. Laws vary by state and municipality.
When you set up your fundraising account, you should discuss with your bank the tax implications of your fundraiser. Your bank will be able to inform you about the latest policies and tax guidelines, so you can prevent your donors or your organization from assuming an unintended liability.
Donations to Nonprofit Organizations
Most donations to nonprofits or other 501(c) organizations are federally tax-deductible for the donor and untaxable for the organization, provided that the donated funds are used for the predesignated purpose. Donors should get a receipt for their donation for tax purposes. As stated above, state and local taxes may still apply to funds raised by nonprofit or other tax-exempt organizations.
Most nonprofit organizations are funded almost entirely by donations, some or all of which may be the result of fundraising activities. NPOs (nonprofit organizations) usually have accountants who assure that the proper taxes are paid and income is reported. Your accountant can also assist you in setting a goal and a budget for your fundaiser.
Inform Donors of Your Tax Status
You need to make it clear to your donors whether their donations are tax-deductible. Many donors will assume that any money they donate to a fundraiser is tax-deductible. But, in fact, only donations made to nonprofit organizations are tax-deductible. It is mandatory that you inform donors of your tax status before they decide to donate to your fundraiser. If you falsely represent yourself as tax-exempt for fundraising purposes, you will be required to pay back the IRS for your donors’ improper deductions and the associated penalties.
Gift Taxes
When you accept donations to your fundraiser, as noted above you must inform donors of applicable taxes, including gift taxes. In general, a gift is defined by the IRS as any money or item of monetary value that changes hands and is not repaid in kind. In general, any IRS-defined gift valued over $12,000 is subject to the gift tax. Thus, donors should be warned that any gift over this amount will be taxable.
Although donations made to nonprofit organizations are usually not subject to a gift tax, donations to personal or for-profit business use can be subject to a gift tax, which may be payable by the gift recipient. Gifts, including financial donations, made to any entity besides a nonprofit organization are not tax-deductible for the donor, and are taxable for the recipient.
Anytime a gift is made that is not entirely exempt under the annual exclusion limit ($12,000), it is subject to a gift tax and the donor is required to file a gift tax return.
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

I believe that the IRS would feel differently.
