Attention Oshkosh Volunteers: Expenses May Be Deductible

January 7, 2015 - Thank you to everyone who volunteered at EAA headquarters in Oshkosh in 2014. Whether you volunteered at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, the museum, or Pioneer Airport (or other areas), your efforts are greatly appreciated! Did you know that you may be allowed a federal and state income tax deduction for expenses incurred when volunteering at EAA headquarters? 

Expenses like transportation (including automobile mileage expense), lodging, and meals that you incur in connection with volunteer services performed on behalf of EAA may be fully or partially deductible as a charitable contribution on your personal income tax returns. To determine if you are allowed to deduct your expenses, EAA suggests that you consult with a qualified tax professional and review this memorandum, which has been drafted by our legal counsel.

Again, thank you for volunteering at EAA headquarters. Your important contributions are a big reason EAA is such a success!
