Frequently Asked Questions
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Yes. The A-Ha Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 39-4551081), and gifts are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
Are there gifts the A-Ha Foundation cannot accept?
Unfortunately, we cannot currently accept qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) from an IRA. The A-Ha Foundation exists to support the American Homebrewers Association, so the IRS classifies us as a supporting organization, and federal tax law does not allow QCDs to go to supporting organizations. However, you can still name the Foundation as a beneficiary of your IRA.
Is a gift the same as an AHA membership?
No. A gift to the A-Ha Foundation is a charitable donation and doesn’t include AHA membership benefits.
How is the Foundation related to the AHA?
The A-Ha Foundation is the charitable and educational arm of the American Homebrewers Association. It funds work that is free and open to the public.
What does my gift support?
Your gift supports homebrewing education, science, and community that are free and open to everyone, not just AHA members.
Can I change or cancel my monthly gift?
Yes. Email foundation@homebrewersassociation.org anytime.
Will I get a receipt?
Yes. Online gifts get an email receipt right away. For gifts by check, include your email address and we’ll send your receipt by email, so more of your gift goes to our initiatives. Otherwise, we’ll mail one to you.
Is my information shared or sold?
No. We never sell or trade donor information.
