Indeed there was an organization in the U.S. that was a conduit for Viva Palestina donations , and that 501(c)(3) group allowed donations to be tax deductable. This group was simply a pass-through for donation.
The accounting issue I mentioned has to do with Viva Palestina itself, and how it ha snot yet provided an accounting of donations and expenditures.
