As the year is quickly coming to a close, many people are looking for worthwhile charities to which they can make tax deductible donations in order to both make a difference in a positive way and earn a deduction from their taxes. Don't forget that the National HBPA Foundation is a perfect place to direct your tax deductible donations in order to help your fellow horsemen when they need it the most. It is both a worthy cause and great way to add a deduction to your tax bill.
The National HBPA Foundation, a tax-exempt Sec. 501 (c)(3) fund, was developed as a safety net for horsemen when other forms of assistance are unavailable or have been exhausted after disaster strikes. Every year, the National HBPA Foundation helps horsemen make it through difficult times such as disease quarantines at a racetrack or natural disasters likes floods, fires, etc.
Last year, the National HBPA Foundation provided horsemen and horsewomen in need with nearly $30,000 in assistance. That figure is expected to be eclipsed in 2010.
