Unfortunately, as I understand it, you can only write off goods, not
services or time. So a pro-bono website, or copywriting, etc can’t be
claimed as a charitable contribution.

hmm. Someone might want to comment on tax issues. If you made out an 
invoice and had them sign off on it as a contribution, it would serve 
the dual purposes of making them aware of the cost to you and the cost 
savings to them as well as giving you a document for tax purposes as an 
itemized contribution. Would this then apply only if it were a 
charitable organization? I have no clue. I'm just putting this out there 
for someone who does have a clue to comment on.
