Here's a few more facts: (1) I believe the police union is a 501(c)(3) so can you answer the question based on this?
(2) can you also answer the question as if the police union is not a 501(c)(3)?
(3) does it matter that I don't live in the city or state where the police union is located and where the police officer who got shot was serving? In other words, do I only get a charitable deduction if it's for my own police department?
