Thank you for your response. However, this is from the 2025 709 instructions (see bold):
Who does not need to file. If you meet all of the following
requirements, you are not required to file Form 709.
• You made no gifts during the year to your spouse.
• You did not give more than $19,000 to any one donee.
• All the gifts you made were of present interests.
Gifts to charities. If the only gifts you made during the year are
deductible as gifts to charities, you do not need to file a return as
long as you transferred your entire interest in the property to
qualifying charities. If you transferred only a partial interest, or
transferred part of your interest to someone other than a charity,
you must still file a return and report all of your gifts to charities.
Note: See Pub. 526, Charitable Contributions, for more
information on identifying a qualified charity.
If you are required to file a return to report noncharitable gifts
and you made gifts to charities, you must include all of your gifts
to charities on the return.
So, I think I may have to report all charity. I do have to file because of a large gift I made to an individual in 2025.
