This is fantastic but realistically couldn’t it be more? I believe I read it was 1$ from her ticket sales on her tours and weren’t they like impossible to get into since she blew up? If it was 2$ per one $200 ticket already doubles it. And given vip tickets can be literally thousands logically it makes more sense for a % of each ticket to be donated. So 10% dono on a 200 ticket would be 20 donated while 10% on a 2,000$ ticket would be 200 donated

In this scenario with Sabrina, it’s not tax deductible. The charity contributions have to be from her own income in order to be eligible to write it off. In this case the money is coming from others and redistributed among charities but not from her income nor is she equaling the amount raised so therefore it’s not eligible to be tax deductible.

Same thing applies with stores asking for donations. Stores can’t use it as a tax write off since they’re just a placeholder between you and the charity unless they’re equaling the donations.

It usually is donated from the corp’s income. For example, for Walmart’s children’s miracle network, that money was already donated by walmart, and customers pay the corporation back. It’s listed in the terms of sale/terms and conditions. That’s why they have “store goals”. To pay back the money they paid the charity. Also it’s so they can guarantee they can maximize the deduction.

Pr/public perception move, tax write off, etc. but you are right that as far as we know, she could be doing much more and it is none of our business.

Systems are SET UP to keep the rich rich and the poor poor. A listers are 100% going to be rich because huge movies and albums and tours is where all the money is. Poor fans uphold that as well by buying merch and tickets. They are set up to stay that way. So unless you’re gonna do something about it, can’t we just shut up and be happy when a rich person DOES give money to charity?

Ok, guys (both of you). You’re asking the ai the wrong questions and arguing about nothing. Fans’ donations are not deductible or “a tax write off” (to her) because it never belonged to her. That means it’s not included in her income. That DOES means she doesn’t pay taxes on it. NOT because it artificially reduces the portion of her income that’s taxable (that’s what a deduction is), but because it just doesn’t increase her actual income. The same way Bob doesn’t pay income taxes on it when Sue

donates money: just no reason he would. Carpenter CAN get a deduction if she donates her OWN money (meaning her taxable income is lower than her actual income by the amount of the donation). But that still doesn’t profit her because the tax she saved is only a fraction of the amount she donated (the fraction that would have been taxed on that amount). & treating donations as income and then deducting them when you donate it forward is incorrect, but the math would come out about the same.

If the public donated to the plus1 charity directly, carpenter doesn’t get to write off the public’s donations. If she set up a website where she donated money out of pocket, she would get to write it off. I looked into it, and plus1 is a not for profit organization that “partners” with celebs in order to market their charities. So, she cannot deduct this 1m dollars. She can however deduct any cost for her time/ money spend marketing for this charity. - an accountant

Unless the contributions were taken out of the ticket sales, technically that’s her income, in that case I’d say it’s deductible. Which it looks like plus1 likes to do it that way. I mean if I was her accountant I would make sure it was set up in a way to where she DOES get to take a deduction because that’s best for her financially
