One Book New Jersey is a New Jersey Library Association program. As such, sponsorships qualify as tax deductible contributions. Sponsors will receive appropriate tax information upon request. Checks should be payable to New Jersey Library Association.

The IRS requires nonprofit organizations to provide a good faith estimate of any benefits received as a result of their gifts. When a donor calculates the charitable deduction, the value of any benefits must be subtracted from the amount of the contribution. If you receive a benefit at a later date as a result of this gift, you will be informed of its fair market value at that time. Benefits valued at 2% of the gift amount or $79, whichever is less, and certain low cost token items are viewed by the IRS as insubstantial and do not need to be considered when determining the deductibility of a contribution.
