TheVortex Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Do you know what the word Donate means? <--- What the word Donate means ---> Donate is a gift given, typically to a cause or/and for charitable purposes. A donation may take various forms, including cash, services, new or used goods as i.e. clothing, toys, food, vehicles, emergency or humanitarian aid items, and can also relate to medical care needs as i.e. blood or organs for transplant. Charitable gifts of goods or services are also called gifts in kind. <--- Legal ---> Donations are gifts given without return consideration. This lack of return consideration means that, in common law, an agreement to make a donation is an "imperfect contract void for want of consideration. Only when the donation is actually made does it acquire legal status as a transfer or property. In civil law jurisdictions, on the contrary, donations are valid contracts, though they may require some extra formalities, such as being done in writing.

The penalties for this crime can lead to a fine of up to $100,000 and 10 years in a federal penitentiary. If you have any more questions, please let us know and we will be more than happy to assist you.
