Item Donation Receipt Template

Item Donation Receipt Template — Ready-to-Use Gifts-in-Kind Form

Whenever someone donates goods instead of cash — rummage sale items, supplies for a mission project, furniture for a new fellowship space — your congregation needs a simple way to give them something for their tax records. This template gives you a ready-to-use Receipt for Gifts in Kind, so donors walk away with proper documentation and your office has a consistent record on file, without writing one from scratch.

The form includes the required "no goods or services of tangible value were provided" language for tax purposes, space to list donated items without needing to itemize individual values, a note on expected condition, and donor and receiving-church information fields. The product image shows both the plain base version and an example of the form dropped into a full church letterhead, so you can see how easily it adapts to your own branding.

Every spot where your congregation's name and address belong is clearly highlighted, so you can move quickly through customization — add your own header, drop in the highlighted fields, and it's ready to hand to a donor.

What's Included:

• Item Donation Receipt (Receipt for Gifts in Kind), in the original Apple Pages format
• Word version (exported from Pages) for congregations without Pages access
• PDF version showing exactly how the formatting is intended to look, for reference
• Highlighted fields marking where your church's name and address go
• Example shown with a sample church header, so you can see how it looks fully branded

A note on formatting: Because the Word file is exported from Pages, you may notice small formatting shifts — spacing or alignment — when you open it. Use the included PDF as your visual reference for how the document is meant to look, and adjust the Word version as needed.

Important: This template is a starting point, not tax or legal advice. Please confirm the receipt language meets current IRS requirements for noncash charitable contributions before using it with donors.

Ideal For: Church offices handling rummage sales, mission project donations, or any in-kind gift needing a tax receipt — and congregations that want a simple form they can drop into their own letterhead.
