Increase Your Impact With IRAs

Date

Category

The IRA Charitable Rollover has been permanently extended! This is great news for those with required minimum distributions (RMD). This allows you to make tax free gifts totaling up to $100,000 from traditional IRA accounts when directly rolled over to a qualified charity.

If you are age 70 ½, consider making a gift to Rose Brooks Center and avoid the tax! If you are younger, you can still easily name Rose Brooks as a full or partial beneficiary.

While you cannot claim a charitable deduction for IRA gifts, it does count towards your minimum distribution and does not trigger income tax. Please also know that your year-end support provides hope and changes lives. What a meaningful way to end 2019! Or updated for 2020, ‘What a meaningful way to end 2020!’

P. S. Rose Brooks also accepts grants from your Donor Advised Fund, appreciated stocks and bonds. Great ways to give without writing a check!

Questions about giving?
In order to complete a qualified charitable distribution for 2020, please contact Marla Svoboda, Chief Development Officer, at marla@rosebrooks.org.
