Yes, you can refer to "Publication 78" of the IRS, linked below.

A 501(c)3 organization means you can give a tax deductible donation. If a company is requesting a donation, ask for proof. I used to work at a foundation that distributed grants. I always required a copy of the 501(c) 3 IRS designation letter.
