IRA Rollover:  In 2015, Congress enacted a permanent extension of IRA Charitable Rollover.  As a result, individuals age 70½ or older can make gifts directly from their IRA to charity without having to claim the distribution as taxable income.

IRA Charitable Rollover:

You may be looking for a way to make a big difference to help further our mission.  If you are 70½ or older you may also be interested in a way to lower the income and taxes from your IRA withdrawals.  An IRA charitable rollover is a way you can help continue our work and benefit this year.
