  19. Data Sources • Internal Revenue Service Business Master Files for Exempt Organizations for 2015 • The National Center for Charitable Statistics Core Files for 2013 (or most recently available), which report the assets of tax-exempt organizations who are required to file a Federal 990, 990-EZ, or 990-PF. • Individual annual reports for the 15 largest private foundations in Florida to ensure data accuracy. • The U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. • The Florida Department of Economic Opportunity—official source for state employment figures.

  20. What’s Next? • The data is live • State Senate District Summaries have been mailed out • Report results have been sent to all Florida elected officials • Ongoing report release tour • Partnerships with Florida Chamber Foundation, Philanthropy and Business Partners

  21. Advocacy • Nonprofit Regulation • Florida Charitable Advisory Partnership • Work with state agencies to ensure our needs our met • Agencies include Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, Department of State, Attorney General’s Office, Department of Finance • Worked on Florida Protection Clawback Bill • Worked on removing CEO compensation bill • Worked to streamline nonprofit registration with the state • Helped with first multi-state investigation

  22. Advocacy Charitable Deductions • Under current law, that would amount to a deduction of up to $2,100/individual and $4,200/couple. • If Congress nearly doubles the standard deduction, as proposed in the Unified Tax Reform Framework released last month, then the non-itemizer deduction would rise to $4,000/individual and $8,000/couple.

  23. Advocacy • The challenge is that by increasing the standard deduction, the framework effectively shuts out 95 percent of Americans from this vital incentive to give to support the work of nonprofits because the share of taxpayers who itemize is expected to drop to only five percent • Experts calculate that the approach in the framework could result in a drop in giving by anywhere from $13 billion to $26 billion per year

  24. Advocacy • Legislation to create a charitable giving deduction for taxpayers who take the standard deduction and do not itemize has been introduced • The bill, Universal Charitable Giving Act would allow taxpayers who take the standard deduction to also deduct charitable donations in an amount up to one-third of the amount of the standard deduction.

  25. Charitable Deductions • Use economic impact data to highlight your impact in your community • How does your organization help the communities you serve through donations? • Share your story through your funding • FNA has been actively working with Community Foundations, Council of Foundations and members of Florida’s delegation

  26. Things to Consider • Independent Sector Research (2016) • 78 percent support a bigger role for the charitable sector in working with the federal government to produce more effective and efficient solutions to problems • About 88 percent of voters believe we should make it easier for people to deduct charitable contributions from their taxes • 74 percent trust charities with their checkbooks over the federal government

  27. Florida’s Nonprofit Sector • Organizations comprising the nonprofit sector provide a level of stability in many communities. • Maintaining the critical infrastructure the nonprofit sector provides to our economy is crucial to Florida’s health and economic vitality.
