๐ฐ New Tax Break for Charitable Giving!
Good news for taxpayers who support charitable organizations! Beginning with 2026 tax returns, eligible taxpayers who take the standard deduction may still be able to deduct certain cash charitable contributions.
Under the new rules:
โ
Up to $1,000 deduction for Single filers
โ
Up to $2,000 deduction for Married Filing Jointly
โ
You do not have to itemize deductions to qualify
โ
Contributions generally must be cash donations to qualified charitable organizations
โ
Be sure to keep your donation receipts and records
This is an additional deduction available to eligible non-itemizers, which means charitable giving may now provide a federal tax benefit even when you take the standard deduction.
๐ Tax Tip: Not every donation qualifies. Before making a large contribution, consider checking whether the organization and contribution meet IRS requirements.
