Donate to the Federation

Thank you for considering the FOHBC in your donation plans.

The Federation has several ongoing funding needs, including the Auction Price Report and the Virtual Museum.  Thanks to your donations, we have raised $116,873 towards the Virtual Museum.  This has allowed us to add 776 bottle spins and gallery pages, with another 700 plus waiting to be added.

Did you know the FOHBC is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization?

How does that affect you? It allows tax deductions for any and all donations to the FOHBC. You might also consider a bequest in your will to the FOHBC. This could be a certain amount of money or part or all of your bottle collection. The appraised value of your collection would be able to be deducted from your taxes. (This is not legal advice, please consult an attorney.) The same-type wording could be used for bequeathing your collection or part of it; however, before donating your collection (or part of it), you would need the collection appraised by a professional appraiser with knowledge of bottles and their market values. This is the amount that would be tax deductible.
