Donations to 501c3, organizations which are tax-exempt under section 501(c)3 of the U.S. tax code, are tax deductible, "unlike donations to political and lobbying organizations." [1]

501c3 "charities don't have to report their contributors to the Federal Election Commission, the IRS or any federal agency." [2]

"By law, charities must only conduct nonpartisan voter activities to keep their tax-exempt status. But the law also allows charities to register and mobilize likely Democratic or Republican voters." [3]
