I would like to start out by saying, I'm not looking to scam my local church or charity group. That being said, lots of church festivals in my area will have a "Casino Tent" or something similar. One of the most common games in Blackjack because of how little a dealer needs to be taught in order to run the table. However, in most cases these events will modify the rules so that a push goes to the house. Keep in mind, these are fundraisers.

I was wondering how the "Basic Strategy" might be changed by these new rules. I assume you'd have to be a bit more aggressive with hits? Like I said before, I'm not going to a charity event expecting to bankrupt the house, but I was curious what the change in rules does to a house edge.

Basically avoid Ties Lose Blackjack - surprisingly you are less aggressive and usually stand earlier against high cards (because 17 only wins if the dealer busts, so usually you're better off standing and praying for the dealer to bust). Interestingly you hit most soft 18s (except vs 7 and 2).
