As part of the CARES Act, changes to tax benefits were made to encourage charitable giving. Beginning in 2020, individuals can take $300 above-the-line deduction for cash contributions to charities, regardless of whether or not you itemize your deductions. We recommend you consult a tax professional or your accountant for details and specifics.
