SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, 

which implement the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13), 

require that interested members of the 

public and affected agencies have an 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection and recordkeeping activities 

(see 5 CFR 1320.8 (d)). This notice 

identifies an information collection 

activity that the Office of Youth, 

Partnerships and Service will submit to 

OMB for approval for the Department 

and its bureaus to continue to collect 

information from proposed donors 

relative to their relationship(s) with the 

Department. The Department and its 

individual bureaus all have gift 

acceptance authority. In support of the 

variety of donation authorities in the 

Department and increasing numbers of 

donations, it is the policy of the 

Department to ask those proposing to 

donate gifts valued at $25,000 or more 

to provide information regarding their 

relationship with the Department. The 

purpose of this policy is to ensure that 

the acceptance of a gift does not create 

legal or ethical issues for the 

Department, its bureaus, or potential 

donors. The information will be 

gathered through the use of a form. 

If this information were not collected 

from the prospective donor, the 

Department would have to collect the 

information. With nine major bureaus, 

2400 locations and 70,000 employees, it 

is not possible to collect the information 

about a particular donor in a timely 

manner to respond to a proposed 

donation. Having the donor certify his 

or her interactions with the Department 

gives the staff reviewing the proposed 

donation basic information. 

II. Method of Collection 

Individuals notifying the Department 

or one of its bureaus of a proposed offer 

of a gift valued at $25,000 or higher will 

be asked to submit a form listing several 

items of basic information. 

(1) Title: Donor Certification Form.
