No. Only donations to qualified charities are deductible, within limits. The threshold your addressing is that certain gifts to family and such, below 13K per person (in 2009, 12k per person in 2008), aren't TAXABLE (under gift tax laws) to the giver.
No, gifts are generally not tax-deductible for the giver. The recipient of the gift is not typically taxed on the gift amount either. However, if the gift exceeds the annual gift tax exclusion amount (which is $15,000 per recipient in 2022), the giver may need to file a gift tax return and potentially pay gift tax.
