I have a member of our body that donates coffee, cups, paper towels, toilet paper on a regular basis in which she is not reimburse for. Do I give them a non-cash contribution receipt or is a part of cash donation receipt?

A thank you letter acknowledging these items should suffice. The member should keep receipts of purchase to prove the value of the donations in case of a tax audit.

Donations added to financial statement

As the financial statement, I have members who want credit for donations to the church. They will put their receipt in the envelope for me to write it on their statement. Is this okay?
