Invest in a Brighter Future for Young Leaders – and Receive Tax Benefits!

Are you 70½ or older and looking for a meaningful way to use your IRA funds? You can make a significant impact on youth leadership programs and communities in Texas and Oklahoma, all while minimizing your tax liability.

Here’s how it works: You can directly donate funds from your IRA to the Texas-Oklahoma Kiwanis Foundation, supporting crucial initiatives like:

  • Disaster Relief: Providing immediate assistance to those affected by natural disasters.
  • New & Struggling Kiwanis Clubs: Helping to establish and sustain vibrant Kiwanis clubs across Texas and Oklahoma.
  • Student Leadership Programs: Investing in the development of young leaders and fostering positive change.

Tax Benefits You’ll Love:

  • No Income Tax: Unlike a traditional charitable donation, your gift from your IRA is excluded from your taxable income.
  • Reduce Your Medicare Premiums & Social Security Taxes: By reducing your annual income, your gift can help lower your Medicare premiums and the amount of your Social Security benefits subject to tax.
  • Flexible Giving: You can donate any amount (up to $108,000) directly from your IRA.

It’s Easier Than You Think: This process, known as an IRA rollover to charity, or Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), allows you to fulfill your required minimum distribution (if applicable) while supporting a vital cause.
