We’re not kitten around—this is fur real! Beginning with your 2026 tax return, you can claim a charitable deduction for your cash donations even when you take the standard (non-itemized) deduction.
- Single filers can deduct up to $1,000 in monetary gifts.
- Married filing jointly can deduct up to $ 2,000 in monetary gifts.
- Unfortunately, gift cards do not apply for this exemption.
When you give to the Idaho Humane Society, you’re giving vulnerable animals a second chance. Your generosity provides lifesaving medical care, shelter, nourishment, rescue from cruelty and neglect, and the opportunity for thousands of pets each year to find loving homes. Every gift makes an immediate, tangible difference for animals who have nowhere else to turn.
For details about your unique tax situation and what is allowable by law, please consult a tax professional. When tax season comes next year, you’ll be glad you planned ahead!
