The directors of "giving" used my numbers as "in kind" donations. Those numbers, while showing up on various institutional lists, as a monetary amount are not applicable to my income tax burden. So - the non-profits get a small tax claim, I get none. My efforts were explicitly listed as donations.

Typically, "non-profits" do not have any tax liability.

However, "in-kind" donations look very good on grant applications - so, certainly yes, do put a value on your contributions. (Check with the non-profit, but I see no reason not to put a full value on your work.) Some granting agencies even ask for them to be included. I used to easily come up with $50,000 in-kind "donations" from our singers (at minimum wage!) when I did grant applications for our community chorus.
