Non profit expenses

[Bowling60]

I belong to a non profit soccer club. I am a team photographer. I do not get paid for any work I do. Can I deduct camera equipment/travel expenses/mileage/club fees?? Thank you!

Yes, you can deduct all of your out of pocket expenses as cash contributions as well as 14 cents per mile for travelling by auto in the service of your IRS qualified volunteer organization.

See IRS Qualified Charity List

To report volunteer expenses in TurboTax:

To enter charitable contributions:

• Type in charitable contributions. in the search box, top right of your screen, then click the magnifying glass

• Click the jump to charitable contributions link in the search results.

• Follow the onscreen instructions to enter

   To benefit from the above, you must itemize your deductions.

  Unless you have enough itemized deductions (ie. Medical mortgage interest, property taxes, charitable giving, ect) to exceed your Standard Deduction, you will not benefit from this expense.
