Summary

The Truth in Giving Act forces any retailer that sells donated consumer goods to tell donors and shoppers whether the donations support a charitable organization or a for‑profit business. Required disclosures must appear on drop‑box signs, at mobile or at‑home pickup, and at the checkout area. The Secretary of State can investigate violations and impose misdemeanor fines and possible jail time, with recovered funds split between the state treasury and the Secretary’s office.
