New Tax Law

Welcome to 2019!

There has been much industry discussion about the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and whether it has had a strong influence on philanthropy. For fundraisers, a number of questions remain unanswered, including:
  • How will families’ and individuals’ philanthropy respond to the change in the standardized deduction?
  • If the new tax law has an influence on philanthropy, will it fall on some sectors more than others?
  • Will the new tax law have a geographic impact?

We’d like to get a sense of the new landscape of philanthropy post-tax-changes.  To that end, we have developed a short survey which we hope you will complete.

All of the survey questions are about resource development for your organization during calendar year 2018 and 2017.

After the survey has concluded, we will make the results available.  Stay tuned.
