I want to start a program to collect donations to help local underprivileged kids pay to participate in sports?
There are a lot of kids in my county in PA who are underprivileged and their parents can’t afford for them to play sports. I want to start a program to collect donations for these kids so they can pay for their sports and other activities fees. Can I do that without going through a whole lot of IRS stuff if I claim the donations on my own personal taxes? Or how should I go about this?

It is only tax deductible if they are a 501c3 organization. It doesnt matter if they pay it or you do. There are fundraising opportunities out there where people dont expect a tax break because they got value for their money. I sell Tupperware and they have a program where you earn 40% on Tupperware sales.
