IRA Rollover
This transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction, so you benefit even if you do not itemize your deductions. If you are 72 or older and you have not taken your required minimum distribution for the year, your IRA charitable rollover gift can satisfy all or part of that requirement.

It is wise to consult with your tax professional if you are contemplating making a charitable gift from your IRA. Questions? Contact Director of Advancement Clarke Wilson Leslie ’80 via email or at 216.320.8115.
