When services ae donated by a vendor, how should any gratuities paid to the vendor for their work be handled? For example, if event includes complimentary labor provided by the venue, would gratuities be permissible? Would we need to obtain an invoice reflecting the complimentary services to include the gratuity?
I understand that donated services is not a charitable contribution and cannot be counted.
Thank you.
