IRA Charitable Rollover

As you plan for the future, 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 allows you to give up to $105,000 each year to a qualifying charity (such as Marywood) without having to pay income taxes on the money.

If you are 70½ or older, an IRA Charitable Rollover may be the perfect means for you to support the University and 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.

Benefits of an IRA charitable rollover

  • Avoid taxes on transfers of up to $105,000 from your IRA to our organization
  • May satisfy your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year
  • Reduce your taxable income, even if you do not itemize deductions
  • Make a gift that is not subject to the deduction limits on charitable gifts
  • Help further the mission of our organization

How an IRA charitable rollover gift works

  1. Contact your IRA plan administrator to make a gift from your IRA to us.
  2. Your IRA funds will be directly transferred to our organization to help continue our important work.
  3. Please note that IRA charitable rollover gifts do not qualify for a charitable deduction, they reduce your taxable income.
  4. Please contact us if you wish for your gift to be used for a specific purpose.

Gifts from your IRA

If you are 70½ or older, you can use your IRA to fulfill your charitable goals. You can use the "Make a Gift From My IRA" tool to contact your IRA custodian and make a qualified charitable distribution. We will acknowledge your generous gifts as a qualified charitable distribution, which may satisfy your RMD, if applicable.

You may also contact your IRA plan administrator to make a gift from your IRA to Marywood and your IRA funds will be directly transferred to Marywood via check or wire transfer.
