Use Your IRA to Help Braille Institute

Dog rolling on backGood Things Happen When You Rollover!

Don’t miss this opportunity to support Braille Institute and enjoy a significant tax benefit at the same time – take advantage of the IRA Charitable Rollover.  Here’s how it works:

  •  Donors age 70 ½ or older transfer assets from their IRAs directly to Braille Institute.
  •  Funds must be transferred directly from the donor’s financial institution to Braille.
  •  Gift can be in any amount up to $100,000 per person per calendar year.
  •  Gift counts toward your annual Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) requirement.
  •  You pay no income taxes on the IRA distribution.
  •  This option is much better than taking an IRA distribution yourself and then making the gift.
