IRA Charitable Rollover gifts
If you are 70 ½ or older, you can direct up to $100,000 each calendar year to a qualified charity directly from your IRA.
Note: Under the SECURE Act, which took effect in January 2020, the age at which required minimum distributions (RMDs) must start increased to age 72. Despite the delay in the starting age for RMDs, Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) from IRAs were not affected. For that reason, QCDs may still be taken from IRAs as early as age 70 ½.
To make an IRA Charitable Rollover: Contact your IRA administrator and request a distribution to be made to Sandy Spring Slave Museum & African Art Gallery directly from your IRA. Request that your administrator include your name and address with the distribution. Check with your administrator for any deadlines that may have an impact on your gift.
