IRS Designate the December 26th Tsunamis as a Qualified
Disaster under §139 of the Internal Revenue Code.
(March 2, 2005)
The designation of these events as qualified disasters means
that employer-sponsored private foundations may choose to provide
disaster relief to employee victims of the tsunamis. Due diligence
should still be exercised, and organizations should consult IRS
Publication 3833 Disaster Relief: Providing Assistance through Charitable
Organizations.
