Amplify Your Charitable Benefits
Charitable Giving With REAL Benefits
Philanthropy With Serious Benefits
At Banyan Strategic Charitable Contributions (BSCC), we specialize in maximizing your tax savings through strategic charitable contributions.
Our expert team ensures IRS compliance and strict adherence to tax laws, giving you peace of mind.
Leveraged contributions allow donors to receive strong 'returns' through income tax savings. Our generous Donors reliably receive over 150% return on their cash charitable contributions.
HOW IT WORKS
-
Gift Transfer – An asset owner considers donating an asset to our nonprofit but does not seek a tax deduction. Instead of donating it directly, they choose to gift the asset to you—the Beneficiary Donor.
-
First Donation – As the Beneficiary Donor, you now own the asset. You then donate the asset directly to our qualified nonprofit and receive a tax deduction via IRS Form 8283.
-
Second Donation – To support the charitable process, a suggested cash donation can be made (typically 10% of the asset’s appraised value). This donation qualifies as a second contribution and is also tax deductible.
-
Significant Tax Savings – The complete process allows the Beneficiary Donors to legally reduce their income tax bill at a cost effective exchange, while also strongly supporting a nonprofit.

OUR STORY UNFOLDED
Banyan began in 2020 as a nonprofit dedicated to affordable housing, specializing in the donation of used mobile homes. We discovered that many donors, eager to simply clear the structures from their property, were intentionally passing on valuable tax deductions. Recognizing this untapped potential, we partnered with seasoned CPAs and tax attorneys to create a solution that preserves and redirects the benefits, creating BSCC, the most beneficial solution for all parties.
