For advisors guiding clients through charitable and financial planning, a donor-advised fund at Kitsap Community Foundation offers unmatched flexibility. Beyond simplifying annual giving, it can serve as the foundation of a comprehensive charitable portfolio—integrating tax planning, legacy strategies, and local impact. Partner with our team to ensure your clients’ generosity endures for generations.

As tax laws evolve under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Qualified Charitable Distributions are becoming an even more powerful tool for clients aged 70½ and up. A QCD can help manage taxable income, meet required distributions, and support community causes. Kitsap Community Foundation can work with you to structure QCD strategies that align generosity with tax efficiency and long-term impact.

Donors aged 70½ or older can make Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) directly from their IRAs to qualified charities—up to $108,000 in 2025—without raising taxable income. By understanding how QCDs work, your nonprofit can guide donors toward tax-smart giving that strengthens both their financial goals and your organization’s mission. The Kitsap Community Foundation team is here to help you navigate and promote this impactful opportunity.

As year-end approaches, charitable giving remains one of the most effective tools for both generosity and tax efficiency. Kitsap Community Foundation partners with advisors to help clients like Emily, Jonathan, and Margaret turn assets—whether appreciated stock, IRA distributions, or front-loaded gifts—into meaningful impact for the community they love.

As 2025 draws to a close, it’s a good time to take stock of your charitable giving strategy. Recent state and federal tax changes may have important implications for your philanthropy and estate plans. Our team at Kitsap Community Foundation is here to collaborate with you and your professional advisors to ensure your charitable giving remains thoughtful, tax-wise, and aligned with your goals for impact.

As the final quarter of 2025 begins, nonprofits are entering one of the most important giving seasons in recent years. Upcoming tax law changes create a time-sensitive opportunity for donors to maximize their philanthropic impact—whether through appreciated stock, Qualified Charitable Distributions, or increased giving before 2026. Kitsap Community Foundation is here to support your efforts and partner with you in inspiring generosity across our community.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act left Qualified Charitable Distributions largely untouched, but their value for clients is greater than ever. For individuals 70½ and older, QCDs remain a straightforward way to give, lowering taxable income while supporting the causes they care about. As new deduction rules take effect in 2026, QCDs will be an important strategy to help clients align tax efficiency with meaningful charitable impact.

With the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, charitable planning has entered a new era. Key changes include a floor and cap on itemized deductions beginning in 2026, as well as an elevated standard deduction in 2025. Advisors should encourage clients to act now on strategies such as bunching gifts, donating appreciated stock, and utilizing IRA distributions—while keeping an eye on the inevitability of future tax reforms.

It’s more important than ever to stay informed about how changes in the tax law may affect your charitable giving. The recently passed One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) creates challenges as well as opportunities for structuring your philanthropy.

Discover what makes Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) a great tool now—and how new laws could expand their flexibility for your giving.
