If you are over the age of 70, rather than simply taking your required minimum distribution (RMD) this year, you can direct your IRA administrator to distribute a gift from IRA directly to The Arc Westchester Foundation. As this is a transfer of funds, you do not report this as taxable income and therefore you will not pay taxes. You benefit even if you do not itemize your tax deductions, and your donation can help impact and transform the lives of all those we serve.
To make your IRA gift, simply contact your IRA provider. You may need to provide them with our Tax ID number which is EIN 13-4223851. Please contact us when you make your gift to ensure that we can properly credit and allocate your rollover check when it arrives.
For questions about ways to give, please contact Fran Higgins, Deputy Executive Director, at 914-495-4536 or fhiggins@arcwestchester.org
