IS MY INSIDER STATUS TAX-DEDUCTIBLE??

The Four (4) Circle Insider Levels are considered donations to U.S. Soccer which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 13-5591991). The tax-deductibility of your gift varies depending on your giving choice. Should you choose to join one of U.S. Soccer’s Circles, you will access exclusive benefits which alter the total tax-deductibility rate. You can also choose to give a fully tax-deductible gift by waiving benefits or providing a unique giving amount. Upon receiving your donation, U.S. Soccer will send you a formal letter for tax purposes, indicating the amount considered tax-deductible by law.

WHAT ARE THE TAX-DEDUCTIBILITY RATES FOR CIRCLE INSIDERS?

A gift is considered tax-deductible when no goods or services were provided to you as a result of your donation. Obviously, Circles come with a range of exclusive benefits. Each level has a unique tax-deductibility amount, outlined below. Upon receiving your donation, U.S. Soccer will send you an official thank you letter for tax purposes.
