Any business expense on developing software for your business is 100% deductible already. Channeling it through a charitable organization would just add complexity, not save any money in taxes. Also, if the arrangement did create some tax savings, your profits would now be stuck in a non-for-profit organization which is probably not what you wanted. > someone like IBM putting all their consultants into a 503(c) and taking all their consulting revenue as donations. If you provide goods and services in exchange for a charitable donation, the value of these must be subtracted from the value of the donations, negating any benefits from that arrangement.
