Make a Bigger Impact with Tax-Smart Giving in 2026

Maximize your charitable impact while taking advantage of new tax benefits.

Why Tax-Smart Giving Matters

2026 brings important tax law changes that create new opportunities for charitable giving.
With the right strategy, you can support the causes you care about while improving your overall tax efficiency.

  • Reduce taxable income
  • Increase your giving power
  • Support causes you care about
  • Create long-term impact

What’s New in 2026

  • New deduction for non-itemizers: Up to $1,000 (individual) or $2,000 (married filing jointly)
  • Cash donations: Deduct up to 60% of adjusted gross income (AGI)
  • High-income limitation: Deduction value capped at 35% for top tax brackets

Smart Giving Strategies

Time Your Giving

“Bunching” multiple years of donations into one year may allow you to exceed the standard deduction and increase tax savings.
A donor-advised fund can help you give now and distribute funds over time.

Give More Than Cash

Donating appreciated assets such as stock or real estate can provide additional benefits:

  • Avoid capital gains tax
  • Receive a deduction for full market value
  • Increase your total charitable impact

Use Your IRA

If you are age 70½ or older, you can make Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) directly from your IRA.

  • Reduce taxable income
  • Satisfy required minimum distributions
  • Give efficiently to charity

Give More—Without Spending More

Tax-smart strategies allow you to maximize your impact while minimizing your tax burden.
