As I shared in my last post, my April sales generated $1,635.46. I have just recieved the check for this amount from Amazon, and am going to make the donation today! However, I have been warned by a friend of mine that donating the entire amount could lead to me owing money in taxes in the future, because Amazon does not automatically withhold funds for tax purposes. This being said, my plan is to withhold 35% of the ebook money, and then wait until I have to pay taxes. At that time, I will post documentation proving how much I had to pay to the government, and, if I have there is extra money, I will then donate it. I want to assure everyone, that I will not be keeping any money, but am holding onto some of this check so that I can pay the government the legal amount it requires by law.
This means that today, with the help of all supporters, I will be making a donation to Doctors Without Borders for $1,063.05!
It's really amazing how this is all turning out! I'm very pleased with this amount and feel as though this will make a very real, very significant impact for some who really could use some help!
Thank you all for your support,
Chad Leito
