Corporate charity
How businesses should donate — taxes and documents
Details
Deduction limit
Charitable spend deductible up to 4% of prior-year taxable profit.
Contract with the fund
Targeted or untargeted contribution; payment purpose is critical for accounting.
Employee volunteering
Paid volunteer days — an HR policy, not a charitable expense; formalize by internal order.
PR vs statutory purpose
A public campaign needs transparent reporting; 'we donated a photo' without documents is a risk.
Corporate charity works as reputation only with documents: contract + act + the fund's spending report. For employee fundraisers — a separate internal procedure, never mixed with company funds.
