Will Review Essays/Resumes for Tax-Deductible Donations [#permalink]
07 Jan 2013, 02:10

This post received KUDOS
I just submitted a ton of essays to four schools, and I would like to capitalize on all the time I spent researching dos and don'ts.
I am a Peace Corps volunteer in Africa, and I have a project that needs funding. It is funded through the Peace Corps website, so everything is on the up and up. All donations go through Peace Corps, not me, and I will never see your credit card info. It is a project that has a business component and aims to fight malnutrition in kids. Now aren't your heart-strings pulled?
Here is the deal I am offering: you get another pair of eyes on your essay, and you make a donation to my project of whatever you feel my services were worth to you. And next tax season you show the receipt to the IRS and get a tax write off.
Let me know if you are interested and I will give you my email address so you can send me your essays.

Excellent idea!! I'd partake if I wasn't already complete with 10 schools!  I've done work with hospitals in Nigeria and Kenya. Whereabouts are you?

Good job getting that many apps in on time! And perhaps even more, good job getting that many letters of rec in on time! I have been serving in Benin for a year an a half. I will say, it made for some good essay content.

Benin looks like a lovely place. Folks in Africa are just fantastic and working with the hospital systems is great. Hope to get back there. But yes, lots of good essay fodder  Good luck
