Illinois Gives Tax Credit
Growing more good in Illinois
Beginning January 1, 2025, Illinois taxpayers are eligible to receive the 25% Illinois Gives Tax Credit. Illinois Gives incentivizes new charitable giving made to Community Foundation endowment funds that permanently benefit Illinois causes.
The Illinois Gives Tax Credit Act's goal is to incentivize up to $100 million in new charitable giving over five years. We are honored and excited to take part in this significant initiative that will boost charitable resources and build sustainability for nonprofits throughout Illinois.
We encourage you to plan early to take advantage of this opportunity and contact the Community Foundation to ensure your gift is eligible!
Please note that the Illinois Department of Revenue has not yet finalized rules for Illinois Gives. We will update this information as additional details and procedures become available.
