IRA Donations
A charitable IRA rollover is a qualified charitable distribution from a retirement account to a charitable organization. One rationale for making such a distribution lies in the benefits the donor can receive. These benefits can be significant in both tax savings and impact on a charity. This is especially true when a person is required to take a distribution from their retirement account.
For some, this distribution could increase their taxable income in such a way that it pushes them into a higher tax bracket. This could reduce eligibility for tax credits and deductions. To eliminate or mitigate the impact of this income, many charitably inclined people often make a type of qualified charitable distribution (QCD) referred to as a charitable IRA rollover. This is not treated as taxable income and allows people satisfy their required minimum distribution (RMD).
IRA rollover gifts have a handful of important benefits:
1. Gifts may satisfy or count toward the required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year.
2. Gifts are not treated as income.
3. Gifts allow donors to take advantage of federal and, in many cases, state income tax savings.

Corporate Matching Gifts
Many employers will match charitable contributions made by their employees. By taking advantage of a company’s matching gift benefit, you may be able to double or even triple the amount of your contribution. To find out if your employer, or your spouse’s/partner’s employer, has a matching gift program, please ask your employer’s human resources department.

Bequests
Through various types of bequests to SRD, you may secure a charitable estate-tax deduction for the value of the gift. Best of all, you will know that your generosity will support our mission for years to come.
You may prefer to state in your will or trust a sum of money or a percentage of your estate that you wish to give to SRD.
Whatever form of bequest you choose, it is not subject to federal estate taxes and so significantly reduces the tax burden of an estate. The value of the bequest may be deducted when the taxable estate is determined, and there is no limit to the deduction.
