Yes, you do. Donations are only tax-deductible if you itemize deductions on your tax return. When you file your taxes, you’ll need to itemize your donations on the Schedule A of the 1040 form.

Network for Good can help you keep track of your individual donations throughout the year with its innovative personal profile feature, which allows you to create a Donation History of the charities you have donated to, how much you’ve donated, and when.
