IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER EXTENDED

The IRA Charitable Rollover is here again! This incentive allows for tax-free gifts to The Dougy Center of up to $100,000 in each of 2008 and 2009 from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA). You should consider an IRA Charitable Rollover if:

  • You do not need the IRA distribution you are required to take, OR
  • You do not itemize deductions but make charitable gifts, OR
  • You are subject to limitations on your itemized deductions, OR
  • Your charitable gifts already equal 50% of your adjusted gross income

To qualify, you must be at least age 70½ and have assets in an IRA.

Transfers must be made from a traditional or Roth IRA account by your plan provider directly to The Dougy Center.
