Philanthropy through Real Estate
2026-08-14
The landscape of philanthropy is continuously evolving, and new data highlights a significant shift: real estate is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of non-cash charitable giving. The National Philanthropic Trust's latest report, "Real Estate Contributions Surge in Latest DAF Report," published August 14, 2026, reveals that real estate assets now account for 12% of all non-cash contributions to Donor-Advised Funds. This represents a powerful opportunity for strategic giving.
