Do these expenses qualify as itemized deductions? I am confused about the part that says "through payroll deduction"

1. Taxpayer's employers both provided them the option of making charitable contributions through payroll deduction. Together they contributed $10,000 to a qualified charitable organization

2. Taxpayer's 25% share of the medical insurance premiums were deducted pre-tax from her paycheck each month. In the taxpayer W2 form it shows 12 DD = $5,269
