This year, you are allowed to claim up to $300 when taking the standard deduction. Enter the $300 in the federal deductions and credits section under charity. The program will handle it from there.

one thing the tax expert didn't mention is you must list them as money/cash contributions. non-cash contributions don't qualify.
