<prompt> Human: Okay so I am a streamer on a website called Twitch.tv and receive donations occasionally. They are not paying for a good or service when they donate, they are just gifting the money to me. Do I need to pay taxes on these donations? I have received multiple mixed answers.EDIT: Okay so it seems everyone is saying I need to pay taxes even though people are not paying for a goodservice. Here is my second question: I did several streams that raised money for charity. The problem is that I executed the charity myself Made care packages for homeless and distributed them. A big sum of money was used for these charitable purposes how should I go about this?  <response>: Yes. If you arent a registered non-profit actor then you must declare such gifts as income.
