Yes, you can deduct charitable donations if you make them to qualified organizations and you itemize deductions. You're even allowed to deduct expenses directly related to charity work, such as mileage or parking. Keep your receipts or other documentation for all of your charitable donations with your tax records. You're not allowed to deduct cash or property given directly to another person, family, or group that isn't a qualified organization. The amount you can deduct is limited, depending on what you donate and the type of charity. We'll figure it out after you import your donations from ItsDeductible or manually enter them. If you can't deduct all of your donations this year, we'll see if the remainder can be carried forward to next year.
Wernickeâs encephalopathy is a sudden, life-threatening reaction of the brain to a thiamine deficiency that results in bleeding in lower areas of the brain, such as the thalamus and the hypothalamus. In addition to increased confusion, a personâs vision, balance and movement may also be affected.
Brain disorder due to thiamine deficiency (Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome). Thiamine helps decrease the risk and symptoms of a specific brain disorder called Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS). This brain disorder is related to low levels of thiamine (thiamine deficiency) and is often seen in alcoholics. Between 30% and 80% of alcoholics are believed to have thiamine deficiency. Giving thiamine shots seems to help decrease the risk of developing WKS and decrease symptoms of WKS during alcohol withdrawal.
