WANT TO REDUCE YOUR TAX BURDEN?
Turn Your Required Distributions into Charitable Donations to Cool Kids Campaign!
Did you know that IRS rules mandate that individuals 70 1/2 and older take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from their IRA each year? These withdrawals are subject to ordinary income taxes. By making your withdrawal a charitable contribution you can satisfy your RMD amount without reporting additional income. This means that you can help children with cancer and their families while lowering your tax bill – a win-win!
Please speak to your financial advisor to see if a charitable contribution from your IRA is right for you. If it is, we encourage you to select Cool Kids Campaign as your charity of choice. Your donation will make life a little brighter for a family dealing with pediatric cancer. If you’re not yet 70 1/2, please share this information with someone who is.
Annual Reports
