I got a flyer from the American Heart Association that provides the following in bold type:

To comply with IRS regulations, the American Heart Association receipts all donors of $250 or more.

One dictionary says "To give a receipt for; as, to receipt goods delivered by a sheriff." That same dictionary says: "To put a receipt on, as by writing or stamping; as, to receipt a bill."

But none of the dictionaries seems to sanction making donors the object of the verb receipt.

Have any of you run into this construction before? While it seems obvious in context, though decided awkard IMNSHO, do you consider the quoted sentence to be good or bad English construction?
