Check their Twitter feed @Liberty_HouseNH:

“Thank you @SNHU for raising $1,100 for the #veterans at Liberty House! We appreciate your support!”

Has a photo accepting a check... I guess it depends who is giving the money.

The concern over taxable status, because it was from a campaign and not a foundation, seems odd. I can make a donation and it’s not a tax concern. Even Trump can make a donation and it’s not a tax concern. But if a ‘campaign’ makes a donation, then it is a concern.

But we can check a tax form box for the federal government to give money to a campaign and then it isn’t a tax concern.

Sheesh.

If Trump launders the money through his OWN foundation, then it isn’t a tax concern.

Heaven help us.

This so-called Vet organization is probably as deceitful as others who profess to take care of the Veterans, while spending 85% of their donations on their own bags of goodies.

People donate to organizations at fund-raisers, parties, or even campaign events. Take the money that is offered to your organization and say “Thank-you”.

The people who said “no” to this donation for whatever reason should be ashamed of themselves. They are the ones
who are exploiting the Vets, not Donald Trump.
