The One Big Beautiful Bill Act's Impact on Charitable Planning

Since its passage on July 4, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) has dominated headlines, sparking conversation across the charitable sector about its potential impact on philanthropy and nonprofit funding. 

While the bill extends several key provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA)—originally set to expire at the end of 2025—it also introduces new tax measures that could influence donor behavior, charitable giving strategies, and long-term planning.

Chief Planning Officer Jeffrey Levine cuts through the noise and highlights the provisions most relevant to your work—helping you anticipate how the legislation may shape fundraising conversations and charitable planning in the months and years ahead.

In this session Jeff covers:

  • Tax planning changes – Potential implications for charitable giving.
  • Estate and legacy giving considerations – How the OBBBA could shape planned giving strategies.
  • Broader implications for nonprofits – From fundraising conversations to year-end appeals and beyond.
