    Tax deduction
    I want to make a $35 to Wikipedia. If I itemize that, how much do I actually get to write-off my income tax? Is it 100% of $35, or less than that?

    Thanks!

    Only the contributions to qualified organizations or registered 501(c)3 charities are deductible as itemized deduction.
