Admin - can you please validate that you, the organization, will not be taking the credit, and we, the members will be able to. As a CPA I find that this could become a sticky matter because you are donating to YT directly not the UYR. Because the UYR is a not-for-profit you can write it off on your taxes, however I do not believe tha is the case when donation to YT.

Also, being that YT has already raised their $250.00 matching contribution wouldn't it be easier to donate directly to UYR anways? It cuts out the middle man right?
