Ways to Help

The Timothy Foundation of Poplar Bluff, Missouri is a 501(c)(3) non-profit; your

Your generosity provides direct help to those in need within our local communities.
The Timothy Foundation meets face-to-face with individuals and families in need to provide support and help them through the most desperate times. Through your generosity, you help people struggling to survive, providing clothing, food, and more.
      When those basic needs are met, we are then able to help those individuals focus on long term goals: education, training, employment, etc. There are several ways to get involved.

If you itemize deductions on your federal tax return, you may be entitled to claim a charitable deduction for your Timothy Foundation donations. According to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a taxpayer can deduct the fair market value of clothing, household goods, used furniture, shoes, books and so forth. Fair market value is the price a willing buyer would pay for them. Value usually depends on the condition of the item. By law, a charity cannot tell you what your donated items are worth. This is something you must do yourself. To assess “fair market value” for your donations:
  • Consult a local tax advisor who should be familiar with market values in your region
  • Review the tax guides available from the IRS
