(June 10, 2025) \u2014 Today,\u00a0the Michigan Senate passed bipartisan legislation to strengthen charitable giving among Michigan\u2019s working families. Sponsored by Senate Majority Floor Leader <b>Sam Singh<\/b> (D-East Lansing), Senate Bill <span><u><a class=\"x_Hyperlink x_SCXW253265868 x_BCX0 x_OWAAutoLink\" id=\"OWA868524a9-e8bd-ef66-a0bb-3c2e80f849eb\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.legislature.mi.gov\/Bills\/Bill?ObjectName=2025-SB-0132\" title=\"https:\/\/www.legislature.mi.gov\/Bills\/Bill?ObjectName=2025-SB-0132\">132<\/a><\/u><\/span> would provide a tax credit for donations to endowed funds at community foundations, encouraging more Michiganders to give while enhancing support for the state\u2019s network of nonprofits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know these types of tax credits work to spur charitable giving because it worked here in Michigan for over 20 years and is currently working in other states around the country,\u201d said Sen. <b>Singh<\/b>. \u201cRestoring our state\u2019s charitable tax credit would empower more Michiganders, regardless of income level, to be a part of the good work being done in our communities while providing our nonprofits with the support needed to continue caring for our friends and families around the state. I\u2019m thrilled to see this legislation pass the Senate with bipartisan support, offering a smart and powerful tool that would cement Michigan\u2019s role as a long-time leader in the nonprofit sector.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span><u><a class=\"x_Hyperlink x_SCXW253265868 x_BCX0 x_OWAAutoLink\" id=\"OWA8c4a9e3b-c3cc-dde6-0e80-1bbb95674987\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.michiganfoundations.org\/system\/files\/documents\/2021-09\/Impact-of-Giving-After-Repeal-of-Tax-Credit-Johnson-Center-2013.pdf\" title=\"https:\/\/www.michiganfoundations.org\/system\/files\/documents\/2021-09\/Impact-of-Giving-After-Repeal-of-Tax-Credit-Johnson-Center-2013.pdf\">To address the decline in charitable giving among low and middle-income households following the elimination of Michigan\u2019s original charitable tax credit in 2011<\/a><\/u><\/span>, this legislation would encourage more Michiganders to give by allowing them to claim an income tax credit for half of their donation to an endowed fund at a community foundation. This credit would be capped at $100 for individuals and $200 for joint filers. Resident estates and trusts would also have an opportunity to claim up to 10% of their tax liability, capped at $5,000. Not only would this empower more residents to invest in their communities \u2014 it would offer budget and operational stability for nonprofits around the state and the vital services they offer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe appreciate Senator Singh\u2019s leadership and the work of the Michigan Senate in getting this important legislation passed. Allowing working families to receive a credit for their charitable giving not only spurs future giving but provides much-needed support for nonprofit organizations who work tirelessly to address community needs,\u201d said <b>Regina Bell<\/b>, Chief Policy Officer of the Council of Michigan Foundations. \u201cWe look forward to working with the House to move swiftly in getting this bipartisan legislation to the Governor\u2019s desk, and this modest yet impactful tax relief to Michigan families and communities.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This legislation has widespread support from foundations and stakeholders around the state, as well as from policymakers on both sides of the aisle.
