In the example from NDSU1980 above, the $600 deduction is for a married couple filing jointly and not itemizing, but only if this donation does not give the donator a special benefit like the right to buy preferred seat tickets. This is a tax change from the CARES Act for 2021…not sure on future years’. A donation to a college fund (athletics or otherwise) is fully deductible if the tax filer itemizes, and also does not receive a benefit like seating priority.
