We are pleased to support the charitable deduction provisions in the bipartisan Hurricane Milton and Helene Tax Relief Act (H.R. 10203), legislation that aims to boost giving to communities impacted by recent hurricanes https://t.co/4eOfcxE2bX @VernBuchanan @CongresswomanSC

The CGC is disappointed that a restoration of the charitable deduction for non-itemizers was not included in the year-end bill, but we look forward to working with Congress next year to advance this important deduction to encourage Americans to #GiveMore

[Charitable Giving Coalition @CGC_DC]

The CGC’s letter urging lawmakers to renew the non-itemizer charitable deduction is still accepting signatures. If you’re a nonprofit and think all donors should have an incentive to #GiveMore to charity, please sign on!

Happy #GivingTuesday! On this day every year, Americans set records of generosity by donating to charities across the globe. Unfortunately, only 12% of taxpayers have an incentive to #GiveMore, but Congress can #RestoreGiving by restoring the UCD. https://t.co/dAcWDZsUZ8

Charitable leaders were on the Hill meeting with 60+ offices this week in support of renewing & expanding the UCD in year-end legislation. With mounting economic uncertainty, encouraging all Americans to give to charity should be a priority for all lawmakers #GrowGivingNow

[Charitable Giving Coalition @CGC_DC]

Charitable leaders had a great meeting with @RepDannyDavis, a long time champion of the universal charitable deduction. Excited for another day of great meetings today! #GrowGivingNow #RestoreGiving

Recent survey: 63% of donors plan to be more cautious with their giving this year and 24% plan to give less. Amid economic uncertainty, renewing the universal charitable deduction is critical to maintain the flow of donations to charities https://t.co/2TSYWJXY5j @Philanthropy

“As we continue to face high levels of inflation in 2022, growing the number of givers and amount given is critical to enable the charitable sector to meet those vital needs.” -@FlahavenCASE

[Glenn Gamboa @GlennGamboa]

Charitable giving hits $485 billion -- another record in 2021, according to @GivingUSA report done by @IUPhilanthropy. But donations aren't keeping pace with inflation and nonprofits are straining to meet demand with higher costs #philanthropy

Recent @AFPIHQ FEP data shows the temporary universal charitable deduction encouraged a significant uptick in $300 & $600 gifts, the exact caps for individuals and joint filers respectively, on the last day of the year compared to previous years. #GiveMore https://t.co/faMptBujDZ

[Charitable Giving Coalition @CGC_DC]

Topline charitable giving numbers are important, but we know the charitable deduction incentivizes a variety of charitable behaviors. A new giving dashboard from @urbaninstitute compiles several sources of charitable giving data in one place: https://t.co/pS35ax1uFx

The CGC hopes any efforts to promote giving undertaken by Crapo and his fellow tax writers will include restoring the non-itemizer charitable deduction to encourage Americans to #GiveMore

[Charitable Giving Coalition @CGC_DC]

In a 4/9 op-ed, @MikeCrapo highlights the importance of nonprofits and that more can be done to encourage charitable giving. He notes that @SenateFinance is examining the charitable giving landscape and that he will continue to responsibly encourage giving https://t.co/RcQdELWY8o

This week, more than 200 foundation leaders will be meeting with lawmakers during virtual Foundations on the Hill, and a key ask is for the renewal and expansion of the universal charitable deduction to encourage Americans to #GiveMore https://t.co/YZLOzfY0aw
