Tax Savings Expiring!

A key stimulus package is set to expire on December 31. Here are a few last-minute ways you can make a difference at PNWU.

The universal charitable deduction is temporarily upgraded. The new deduction is $300 for single filers and $600 for married couples filing jointly. This is available to taxpayers who take the standard deduction. This tax incentive is available for cash gifts to qualified charities (but not to supporting organizations or donor advised funds).

The cap on annual contributions for those who itemize increased from 60% to 100% of adjusted gross income for 2021. Any excess contributions available can be carried over to the next five years. (For corporations, the law raised the annual limit from 10% to 25% of taxable income.)

After you make a gift online, you will receive a confirmation receipt for your gift.

If you do not make an online gift you will receive a thank you letter within two weeks. This thank you letter acts as your tax deductible receipt.

Yes. Choose the area you would like to support and indicate the amount of your gift. Then provide information to extend your gift in honor or memory of.

No, out of respect and privacy, PNWU  does not sell or share any information regarding donor or alumni relations.
