This meetup group promotes the public purpose of encouraging, through tax deductions, significant support of a nonprofit public benefit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization by taxpayers of substantial means who advance their own funds for the operation of charitable organizations. "Do what you like to do."

Community service trips allow us to immerse ourselves into communities other than our own for a short period of time (usually for a weekend, fall, winter, spring, or summer break) in order to complete community service projects and participate in experiential learning. Service trips afford us the opportunity to learn about social problems faced in other communities and to get involved in diverse environments enabling us to experience, discuss, and understand social issues in a significant way (Break Away 2008).

Although we cannot deduct the value of our time spent volunteering, we can deduct travel expenses incurred while performing volunteer services away from home overnight, as long as no significant part of the trip is spent for personal pleasure, vacation, or recreation.
