Is volunteer time tax-deductible?

No. The value of your time and services is not deductible. But some out-of-pocket costs of volunteering can be, if you itemize: for example, the cost of a uniform you must wear and can't use elsewhere, or driving your own car for a charity at 14 cents a mile (or actual gas and oil), plus parking and tolls. IRS Publication 526 has the details. Keep your log; it's the record you'll need.
