Unfortunately, no. You can either take the Standard deduction, or the Itemized deduction when paying taxes. Unless I paid more than $16,100 to charity in 2026, it would not benefit my taxes at all-- and even then, it would only benefit me for over 16,100.

Yeah, usually. Though, if I do my yearly local animal shelter for instance, I will not provide any receipt showing location, exact animal shelter, etc, to preserve my anonymity.

I donate to charity for three main reasons:

꒰ঌ·✦ I like cats and animals

꒰ঌ·✦ Shocking volunteer workers with donations has a certain thrill, most definitely.

 ꒰ঌ·✦ VRChat has aspects of the community that suck. I do charity to prove to myself that there's a reason for dealing with all of it.

Whenever I have a good product that sells well, I have the breathing room.
