Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I teach a college equestrian program which uses horses from another facility not otherwise affiliated with the college. There are people who would like to donate horses to the college program through this facility, but they would like to still get their tax breaks. Would they be able to donate to this facility for use by the college team and club?
So that I don’t get the warnings about the IRS, I will of course be consulting a lawyer. I’ve been trying to do my own research, but there is very little technical information on the subject for lay people. I don’t happen to know any tax lawyers, and I want to see if anyone knows a bit about it before I might have to pour money into it. So, if someone sees this subject and happens to know anything, I would greatly appreciate input and advice.
Thanks for your time.
