About the Charitable Giving Coalition

The Charitable Giving Coalition is a diverse alliance of over 60 nonprofit organizations, united by one powerful goal: protecting and promoting the charitable tax deduction, a time-honored American tradition that fuels generosity and strengthens communities.

For more than a century, this tax incentive has encouraged individuals to support causes they care about-from feeding families and healing patients to educating students and uplifting communities. Our coalition works to raise awareness of the deduction's critical role in sustaining these services-and why it must be preserved and expanded.

Why the Charitable Deduction Matters

The charitable deduction isn't just a tax policy-it's a catalyst for good. For every $1 in tax benefit, communities receive at least $2.50 in services. That's an unmatched return on investment, driven entirely by the generosity of private citizens. Simply put, no government program could replicate this impact as efficiently.

But this powerful incentive is at risk. Proposed changes to the tax code could either unlock even more giving-by making the deduction available to all taxpayers-or dramatically reduce it, threatening billions in donations that millions of Americans rely on every day.

A Bipartisan Case for Giving

Policymakers across the political spectrum understand the value of the charitable sector. Still, budget pressures lead to tough decisions-and that's where we come in.

The Charitable Giving Coalition is making a strong, unified case for expanding the charitable deduction, not capping or limiting it. We're committed to working closely with lawmakers to ensure they understand that reducing this vital incentive could jeopardize the very heart of our nation's philanthropic spirit.
