Answer:

$0

Explanation:

In order for any taxpayer to be able to deduct any amount for charitable contributions, he/she must itemize their deductions. If you choose to take the standard deduction (in this case $24,800, same as joint filers), you cannot deduct charitable contributions or any other specific deduction.
