| Earlier this summer on the L.A. Weekly weekly podcast, producers sat down for a conversation with Jonathan Shugart, founder of B Charitable, an Alabama-based nonprofit that was built out of a desire to make the act of charitable giving easier for all parties involved. With so many existing crowdfunding platforms already taking up space nationally, what holes are left to be filled? Well, you may not know this, but existing crowdfunding platforms, where an individual sets up a campaign and others donate personal gifts, are not considered charitable contributions by the IRS, so the giver cannot benefit from the tax deduction. B Charitable changes all that. A tax-exempt entity whose sole purpose is to house charitable gifting funds for individuals, the platform provides donors with financial peace of mind knowing that the funds collected on B Charitable can only then be donated to public charities. As an exclusive for L.A. Weekly readers, B Charitable is offering to match up to $25 of your first contribution after you set up your free donor advised fund. Exclusive offer available to the next 1000 users only, so sign up today and make your giving go further.
