H.R.1 News

This year, the "Big Beautiful Bill" was signed into law. Because most of the changes regarding charitable giving under H.R.1 apply to tax years beginning 

January 1, 2026, many advisors recommend accelerating large gifts in 2025 to avoid the new floors and limitations. Below are some links that help summarize the changes. For detailed guidance, please consult with your tax professional.
