The concept of private gifting is based upon the fact that both American and Canadian citizens have the right to gift property, cash and other assets within the rules and regulations established by the laws. The U.S. gifting rules are found in the IRS Tax Code, Title 26, Sections 2501-2504 and 2511, and Canadian Tax Code, Sections 143.3 and 62.0. The law states that one or more individuals can give a gift to another individual of up to $10,000 each per calendar year without any tax liability to either the giver or the receiver of the gift, because the tax on the gift has already been paid. These gifts are not included in the gross income of the recipient - See 102(1986 U.S. Tax Code).

How did this concept begin?   Giving private gifts to one another is an expression of kindness, which has been going on for centuries. Governments have allowed its practice for individuals to share their wealth with families, friends, and others. It has been a means of helping and blessing others on special occasions or when the need arises.

In fact, to be considered a gift under the Tax Code, the gift "must proceed from a detached and disinterested generosity; out of affection, respect, admiration, charity or siliar impulse." In this activity, there are no expectations for exchange of services or any other valuable consideration between the giver and the receiver.

Many cultures gift as a matter of course. Asian, Jewish and South American communities gift individuals within their race and/or culture on a regular basis so that they may start a business or buy a home. They in turn gift someone else to help enhance their lives. Habitat for Humanity is a great example of private gifting. Everyone participates with their time, their talents and materials to build a home for someone else. Some participate with a hammer, some with nails, some with food and others with the monetary gifts to purchase the supplies, but all create a team that works together to bless someone's life.

How does the gifting activity work?   Individuals share using a basic concept that "all things must be done in order" and follow the law of reciprocity - giving opens the way for receiving. This activity is offered only by means of an exclusive one-to-one invitation. When someone accepts the invitation, they move through a natural progression from the giving to the receiving stage of the activity usually in about one month. Everyone rotates through the activity and if they comlete the progression, they will receive monetary gifts and well wishes form the team. In this activity, there is no fixed hierarchy of individuals who have an adventageous position or unfair advantage over new participants.
