How the Tax Code Shapes Your Charitable Giving in 2026
from The Tax Policy Podcast with Fexingo: Income Tax, Corporate Tax, and Fiscal Conversations · host Fexingo
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changed the way Americans donate to charity — and why fewer households now itemize deductions. They break down the standard deduction hike, the rise of donor-advised funds, and the little-known 'bunching' strategy that can save you thousands. Using real data from Giving USA and the IRS, they explain why charitable giving as a share of GDP has stayed flat even as total dollars rise, and what the new 2026 rules mean for your year-end giving plan. Specific numbers and concrete examples throughout. #TaxPolicy #CharitableGiving #StandardDeduction #DonorAdvisedFunds #BunchingStrategy #TaxCutsAndJobsAct #ItemizedDeductions #GivingUSA #IRS #Philanthropy #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #TaxPlanning #YearEndGiving #2026TaxRules #Charity Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
