Deductions & credits
That may be true, but one would need a statement from the local Girls Scouts organization which delineates exactly how much is considered a donation. I have a couple of 501c3 Charity "memberships" in which they actually tell you what portion can and cannot be deducted as a donation.
OF course, with the increased Std Deduction, tarting in 2018, it's a lot tougher to reach the Itemized Deduction level which allows any of those itemized deductions to be used
(You enter them all in the software anyhow, since some states use entirely different triggers and you enter all of your potential deductions, including charity donations, in the Federal section (with only a few exceptions), and that data is transferred to the state section by the software. )
