We are the seeds. Relationships are the soil. Make a tax-deductible gift to help us raise $200,000 by 2027 to fund our critical support network, organized by and for immigrant and refugee families.

The Refugee Community Partnership (RCP) is a grassroots support network, founded and led by immigrant and refugee families in the Triangle. We connect our more than 2,000 Members to critical resources and defend against government attacks, while planting the seeds of leadership to transform the systems that fail us. Since 2024, we’ve lost more than $400,000 in annual government funding. We’re calling on our neighbors for help: together we can nurture the seeds of connected communities and build a North Carolina that is welcoming to all.

Tax Code Updates for Donors

 New 2026 charitable tax law changes may affect your giving this year. Here’s what you need to know!

  • New Deduction for Non-Itemizers: If you take the standard deduction (as roughly 90% of taxpayers do), you can receive an “above-the-line” tax benefit for charitable giving. This change allows you to deduct up to $1,000 for individuals or $2,000 for married couples filing jointly for cash gifts made directly to qualified public charities.
  • Strategies for Itemizers: If you itemize deductions, charitable contributions are now deductible only to the extent they exceed 0.5% of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). To help clear this new floor, you might consider:
  • Bunching Contributions: Combining multiple years of giving into a single tax year. You can bunch directly with RCP or through a Donor Advised Fund.
  • Donating Stocks and Appreciated Assets: Gifting appreciated assets like stocks or mutual funds allows you to avoid capital gains tax, allows a deduction for the full fair market value, and can help clear the AGI floor.

As with every aspect of our work, trust in community and in each other is a fundamental building block for grassroots fundraising. That’s why we work hard to receive the highest grades available for accountability and transparency.
