Feargal Be careful about dispensing "legal" advice -- unless of course, you are a member of the Bar, or a CPA or even an H&R Block Graduate . Whether there is any "tax" due depends on a number of factors -- and quite frankly we don't have enough information to make any determination about this -- at this time. But -- "assuming" Paul runs this as a business, taxes are only due to George W. if there are "profits." Hence, if all the "donations" are actually used to support "GroupStudy," there probably is no tax liability. However, once again, I caution -- this is simply a "hypothetical" based on an "assumption." (Of course, Paul COULD take the "donations" and treat himself to a relaxing trip to the "Cisco Islands!!" It is NOT INTENDED to be legal advice of any type.
