SSA Eagle Fund Appeal 2017

ACT BEFORE DEC 31 TO INCREASE THE TAX BENEFITS OF YOUR CHARITABLE GIVING

Although the new tax legislation maintains the itemized charitable deduction; because the size of the standard deduction is doubled it will significantly reduce the number of taxpayers who itemize. This will effectively eliminate the income tax charitable deduction for those affected. If you are among this group, accelerating your 2018 Eagle Fund giving into 2017 could benefit you*; especially if your expected itemized deductions in 2018 are in the following ranges:
• Married filing jointly: $12,700 to $24,000
• Single: $6,350 to $12,000

Additionally, even if you will still itemize, lower marginal tax rates in 2018 mean a greater tax benefit for deductions made in 2017 vs 2018.

The SSA greatly appreciates the annual support of it members though the Eagle Fund; and we also want you to get the maximum benefit from your generosity.
