Year-end giving season always moves fast. But this year, the rules of the game are changing.
The One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) is introducing a set of federal tax law changes. Some of these changes will shift how charitable deductions work, especially for donors who itemize.
That means:
- Some donors can save more by giving now.
- Others may benefit by waiting until next year.
Knowing who’s affected and how to explain it clearly could help your donors make better decisions and strengthen their giving relationship with your organization.
Join us on Wednesday, November 19, at 1:00 PM ET to learn what’s changing, what’s staying the same, and how to help donors make the smartest move for their situation.
