From the EFF's donation page:
EFF is a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization. Our tax ID number is 04-3091431. Your gift is tax deductible to the full
extentprovided by law. To view our financial records, please visit Guidestar. 

(I needed to check this since I gave them $200 that I am planning on itemizing
on my taxes due shortly.)
