A church donation, simply speaking, is a gift of money you give to a local church community. Often this is amount is separate from "tithe." Tithing is when Christians give the first 10% of their income to the church, usually on a weekly basis.
Donations can occur at any time or for any reason, but are generally contributions given to some project (i.e. helping orphans in Uganda). Churches are almost always 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, thus both tithes and donations are tax deductible.
