Consider donating $300 with additional tax benefits: The 2020 CARES Act allows for taxpayers to deduct up to $300 for donations to qualifying organizations without having to itemize! With the recent extension, this option will be available through 2021, now with an added component: the $300 above-the-line deduction is per person instead of per return, meaning couples filing jointly may deduct up to $600! You’ll qualify for additional tax benefits while also supporting our future leaders!
