IMPORTANT: Giving this item as a gift to TNC employee?
Please note that because its value exceeds $100, the total cost of the backpack will be considered a taxable gift and treated as taxable compensation as outlined in TNC's FMH Payments to Non-cash gifts guidance. This means that tax is required to be withheld from the employee’s paycheck at their normal federal and state tax withholding rates (approximately $25, depending on their actual tax rates). 
The employee’s supervisor will need to submit a Taxable Employee Gifts Form by email to payroll@TNC.ORG for the employee.
