Operation Christmas Child appears to be operated by the Samaritan’s Purse, which is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity. Therefore contributions to this - and any other qualified charitable organization - are deductible on Schedule A under Itemized Deductions.
You either list the amount of money you donated or the current value of the item you donated. Note that you cannot normally deduct more than the item cost you.
Dues to professional organizations may be deductible as an employee business expense (subject to the 2% floor) if the membership helps you carry out the duties of your job. See the link to the excellent answer by TurboTaxHelena below.
