Philanthropy through Real Estate

How are recent shifts in tax reform and philanthropic strategies influencing global giving? The Donor Advised Fund Research Collaborative's 'Annual DAF Report' (Executive Summary Updated Spring 2026) indicates a significant 38.6% increase in contributions to Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) in FY 2024. This growth is increasingly driven by the strategic donation of appreciated assets, including real estate, as highlighted by National Philanthropic Trust's 'What Tax Reform Means for Charitable Giving in 2026,' published July 1, 2026. Donors are leveraging these non-cash assets to maximize charitable impact and optimize tax outcomes. What implications does this hold for the future of property as a philanthropic vehicle?
