For tax deductibility folks should make payment to the church and provide
direction e.g. Warwick or Seago on memo line.
This is charitable giving and since you get no monetary value in return (tote
bag or concert tickets) it will be tax deductible if that matters.

David, Thank you for your presence and all you’ve done for the family and the
people in town over the last several days.
A couple of questions: will the GoFundMe URL be sent out (I assume it will as
soon as it is ready), and if people make checks to the Church are they tax
deductible? I mention this mainly because knowing that might enable some people
to give a bit more – it’s true for a 501(c)3 organization I work with.
With thanks,
Doug Wessel

At the request of the family’s church, Our Lady of Czestochowa will be the
single fundraising point. I’ve informed the Red Cross who had agreed to help us
on this. Our Lady are creating a “Go Fund Me” online account and will accept
donations at 84 K St. Turners Falls MA 01376. I have an envelope I will be
turning in to the church and I will accept your contribution and add it. Checks
may be made payable Scott Seago or to Our Lady of Czestochowa with “Warwick
Fire” or “Seago” in the memo line in the latter case.
The church will let me know about funeral arrangements soon as they are
available and I will share.
