Wait on Charity until 2026

Starting in 2026, you don’t need to itemize to claim a charitable deduction! Thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill, taxpayers can deduct up to $1,000 (or $2,000 if married filing jointly) for cash donations to qualified charities—even if they take the standard deduction. That’s real money back for doing good.
So if you’re planning a gift, consider waiting until January to maximize your benefit.
Give smart. File smarter. 💸❤️
