Tax Deduction Information
The Internal Revenue Service does not recognize donations of frequent flyer miles as tax a deduction since taxes were not collected from individuals when they earned the miles.
For further information, we suggest that you consult IRS Publication 526 and/or your personal tax advisor.
Confirmation of Donations
To protect donor privacy, mileage donation information received by Fisher House "Hero Miles" includes only number of miles donated and date donated. Written confirmation is issued by each airline in the form of an updated periodic account statement that will reflect new mileage balance after donation.
