Welfare and Institutions Code section 151

(a)

The front of every collection box shall conspicuously display both of the following:

(1)

The name, address, telephone number, and, if available, the Internet Web address of the owner and operator of the collection box.

(2)

A statement, in at least two-inch typeface, that either reads, “this collection box is owned and operated by a for-profit organization” or “this collection box is owned and operated by a nonprofit organization.” For purposes of this chapter, a commercial fundraiser shall be classified as a for-profit organization.

(b)

If the collection box is owned by a nonprofit organization, the front of the collection box shall also conspicuously display a statement describing the charitable cause that will benefit from the donations.

(c)

If the collection box is owned by a for-profit entity, the front of the collection box shall also conspicuously display a statement that reads “this donation is not tax deductible.” If the collection box is owned and operated by a commercial fundraiser, the commercial fundraiser may post notice of donations to a charitable cause only on the sides of the box. This notice shall always be smaller in size than the for-profit entity’s name and address and shall constitute only 25 percent of the notice space of the box.
