Therefore, event organizers who raise funds at an event cannot receive a tax receipt for monies given by others. If The Cambridge Food Bank receives a list of donors and their addresses and the amount given by each individual/organization along with a lump sum representing the total amount of funds raised, tax receipts may be issued to these individuals
