Can i claim charity bingo on my taxes

If you are asking to deduct the cost of playing bingo, then no, you can’t since you had a benefit from that expense.

No, this is not deductible as a charitable contribution.

 

Here are some Non-Qualified Contributions:

  • Donations made to specific individuals
  • Donations made to political organizations or candidates
  • Donations made from an IRA distribution
  • The value of time you spent volunteering
  • The cost of playing games of chance, including raffles and bingo
  • Any contribution from which you receive or expect to receive a financial or economic benefit of equal value
