How much do I need to donate in order to receive a deduction?

your total itemized, which includes donations, would have to exceed your standard deduction.  in addition, donations are limited to 50% of adjusted gross income (20% or 30% for certain organizations)

2018 standard deduction 

Single or Married filing separately $12,000

Married filing jointly $24,000

Head of household $18,000

additional amounts if over 65 and/or blind
