2025 Year-End Giving Guide

Charitable gifts can be made until your country’s tax-year deadline, but giving earlier in the calendar year can maximize the impact of your contribution and can provide further benefits for you and the charities you support.

Here are a few advantages of giving early with TrustBridge Global:

1. Avoid Missing Tax Deadlines

In countries where the TrustBridge Global Network enables local tax-deductible giving, your gift may be eligible for tax benefits. Deadlines and tax years vary by jurisdiction, and some do not follow a calendar-year end (for example, the United Kingdom and Australia). Giving early helps ensure your gift is credited in the correct tax year and avoids last-minute cutoffs.

2. Allow Time for Charity Vetting

If you’d like to support a new charity this year, early planning allows TrustBridge Global to complete the necessary due diligence so your intended organization can receive your gift—without delays.

3. Better Planning

Early gifts give both donors and charities a clearer path ahead. You can finalize your charitable goals while charities prepare for how they’ll put your generosity to work, ensuring smoother and more effective impact delivery.

4. Give with Confidence

Avoid the stress of last-minute transfers, postal slowdowns, or holiday cutoffs. By giving early, you’ll gain assurance that your contribution will be received, processed, and used on time as intended.

5. Spread Joy Through Holiday Cheer

Year-end programs often bring critical relief and festive spirit to communities worldwide. Your early support ensures charities can launch their holiday initiatives with the resources they need—delivering hope, warmth, and tangible impact.
