6 - Since my purchase supports KCRW, is it tax deductible?

KCRW, a nonprofit public radio station, is wholly owned and operated by Santa Monica College. Contributions to KCRW are tax-deductible to the extent allowed under Internal Revenue Code Section 170(b). KCRW's Tax ID is #95-3750631.  For federal income tax purposes, the amount of your contribution that is deductible is limited to the amount by which your donation exceeds the fair market value of the item you receive.  A tax letter is issued each January for the previous calendar year to members via email or mail.
