Can you claim a deduction for a rental property donation?

Our 501(c)(3) is holding a retreat for families of individuals with a certain disease. A family with a vacation rental is willing to donate the home for the retreat if they can have a charitable contribution deduction. Will they be able to claim a deduction if they provide the house?

No. The IRS views the use of property as the provision of a service and the provision of services is not deductible.
