Show the pro bono client what your actual fee would have been, and then waive it, showing a net of nothing due. That way you’ve established your fee for that particular project in the mind of that “buyer” and of anyone else on the board, on the committee, or in the room. Note: This does not constitute a “donation” or a tax-deductible item under current Income Tax Act or rules, so don’t attempt to use the invoice to justify a deduction.
