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.

While tax policy often makes headlines, most charitable giving is motivated by deeply personal values such as compassion, empathy, and commitment to community. Research confirms that generosity benefits both the giver and the receiver, reinforcing its role as a cornerstone of human connection. At Kitsap Community Foundation, we are privileged to support donors whose philanthropy reflects their enduring care for others.

Recent changes in federal tax law under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) bring both challenges and opportunities for nonprofits. From higher standard deductions that may impact tax-motivated giving, to upcoming 2026 limits on charitable deductions, and even a new non-itemizer deduction, the landscape is shifting. 2025 may be a pivotal year for larger gifts, and the community foundation is here to help you plan and maximize support through these changes.
