If i'm not mistaken, you could claim this money under the Hobby income section, and claim the cost of the expenses up to the amount of the Hobby income...But check with whomever dose your taxes, or call the IRS. They should also have a Publication that pertains to Hobby income and expenses...

The reason I'm telling you this is, because I prepare Taxes for individuals as a Hobby and I have Hobby income, but also have Hobby expenses to offset the income... Contact me if I can help you out any further.
