As a tax lawyer, I can’t help but view year-end giving through the lens of “deductibility.” But beyond the tax benefits, there’s a deeper motivation for philanthropy as we close out the year. December’s not just the final chance for a tax break; it’s a time for reflection, gratitude, and community, with over 30% of charitable giving happening this month. Between cultural traditions and the psychological push to "finish strong," it's no wonder year-end donations carry such emotional weight—after all, the season’s about giving, and giving back to what matters most.
