Meeting/Event Information

Join us virtually on September 23 for an informative webinar exploring the connection between tax law and charitable giving. This presentation will highlight how the history of tax law shapes modern giving, particularly one year after the One Big Beautiful Bill. Exploring how historical tax policies, regulations, and government interventions have gradually eroded charitable independence, attendees will gain crucial insights to better navigate regulatory limits, protect donor influence, and champion philanthropic freedom.

Registration for this event will close on Monday, September 21, at 12pm (noon) ET.
