[Great Hall of Rockwall] Rummage Sale

If I am remembering my tax stuff correctly it is.  I will have to dig  my 
books out and verify

A  question for the Hall:

A coworker and I were comparing e-bay adventures  this morning. He mentioned 
that he had a box of stuff that he wanted to  get rid of, but didn't think he 
could sell any of it for a price that  would make up for the payout in ebay 
fees and his time. I said that I had  a similar box, but I was planning to 
just give it to the Shire's summer  rummage sale. He asked if that would 
result in a tax deduction for me next  year. I said probably not, since 
technically it is a gift to a group I'm a  member of.

But what if the giver is not a member of the SCA? Since  we're technically a 
non-profit educational group, would a donation of  items by someone who 
doesn't attend events be tax-deductible, similar to a  donation of stuff to 
the Salvation Army?

If so, I've got some  friends and family I might be able to talk into giving 
us stuff for the  sale.
