Donor Agreements are essential documents in philanthropic transactions within the United States, used whenever significant charitable contributions are made to organizations. These agreements provide clarity and legal protection for both donors and recipients by documenting the specific terms of the gift, any restrictions on its use, and the obligations of both parties. A well-crafted Donor Agreement helps prevent future misunderstandings, ensures compliance with IRS regulations and state laws, and provides a framework for long-term donor-recipient relationships. They are particularly important for large gifts, endowments, or donations with specific conditions attached.
