| That means that you can support the Miller-Dwan Foundation with a gift from your IRA, and you won’t need to include that amount in your taxable income.
Think about making a gift from your IRA if:
- You are least 70 ½ years of age when the gift is made
- You don’t itemize deductions
- You pay state income tax but cannot take charitable deductions on your state return
- You wouldn’t be able to deduct all of your charitable contributions because of deduction limitations
- An increase in taxable income would negatively affect your ability to use other deductions
And remember:
- The gift must be transferred directly from your IRA administrator to the Miller-Dwan Foundation
- IRA gifts cannot exceed $100,000 per person ($200,000 for a couple) in a given year
- They can only be outright gifts (can’t fund a CGA or charitable trust)
- No goods or services can be given in exchange
- The gifts cannot be made to a donor advised fund, a supporting organization, or a private foundation
That makes a gift to the Miller-Dwan Foundation the perfect way to support your healthcare community.
Contact your broker or accountant for more information.
