Please contact us if you have questions about either receipt or about claiming your credit. If you would prefer that we mail a hard copy of the receipt letter that has your tax credit certification number please email us at scholarships@sagamoreinstitute.org
If you are making a large gift you may want to check with your bank or credit card company to assure that the gift is within their transaction limits.
