Income disregarded in part: Charitable and voluntary payments: Meaning of voluntary payment


Voluntary payment means a payment which
1) has a benevolent purpose and
2) is given without anything being given in return.

A voluntary payment has the same purpose as a charitable payment except that it can be for the benefit of an individual rather than a sufficient section of the public and need not be made from a charitable trust.
