You are looking for a Zakah eligible & Tax deductible recipient, which is easy to find.

You can pay your Zakah to any of the Islamic organizations who have 501(C) 3 status with the IRS, meaning; non-Profit organization.

These organizations are eligible Zakah recipients-as needed only- according to the Fiqh Council of the Muslim World League- and we support this Fatwa in AMA- and Tax exempted at the same time. So, when paying to such organizations, you fulfill your Zakah duty and your payment is Tax deductible.
