3. The 2017 changes in the Federal Tax Law have impacted charitable giving deductions for individuals. For some, those deductions have been an important part in their tax planning process, and have often defrayed significant portions of the costs of donations. You may want to discuss with your Tax Advisor or Accountant your giving options, as it may be that you are able to initiate an automatic pre-tax charitable contribution from retirement distributions that will maximize your taxable deductions. This contribution may be made by your financial institution much like a payroll deduction so you can reduce your taxable income received. The personal exemption for income tax has been increased so that those who used to get a tax benefit are no longer able to deduct their giving. This kind of reduction may be helpful to you, but PLEASE check with your tax advisor. We do not want to give out personal tax advise.
