Are your congregation member's donation patterns going to change in 2026?

The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” or OBBBA was signed into law in 2025. Will it affect your charitable giving?

The Bill as I understand it: 
-Maintained current Tax income brackets . 
-Increased the standard deduction and estate gift tax exemptions
-Created a new $1,000  deduction  for cash charitable gifts for non-itemizers ($2,000 for joint filers),
-Offered A bonus $6,000 deduction for seniors ($12,000 for joint filers), 
-Began new tax credit for cash contributions to scholarship-granting nonprofits.

Will this change how your church talks to members about giving?
