Do I need to declare an emergency assistance grant from a charitable organization? If so, how do I do that?

In general, Emergency Assistance Grants are not taxable.  As long as the group providing you with emergency assistance is a charitable organization then you should not have to declare the help.

 

You also would not declare the help if you received a FEMA grant or emergency student aid.  But if you received emergency assistance from your employer that could be considered taxable.
