It spreads the financial impact of your giving across the year—and it helps Homeward Bound better predict income.

IRA

A win-win for taxpayers and Homeward Bound – if you are 70 ½ or older, you can make an IRA transfer of up to $100,000 directly to Homeward Bound and claim it as a tax-free IRA Charitable Rollover gift by following these guidelines:

You must be 70 ½ or older when you make the gift and it must be from a traditional or Roth IRA. Retirement plans such as 401(K), 403(b), SIMPLE or SEP accounts do not qualify.
Transfers can count toward your required minimum distribution.
You may contribute up to $100,000 per individual, per year. Thus spouses or partners can each give $100,000 from separate IRA accounts.
Distributions must be made directly to Homeward Bound of WNC and completed by Dec. 31.
The IRA charitable distribution is not included in your taxable income so there is no charitable deduction available.
The IRA charitable distribution may be used to fulfill a pledge.

Contact Jessie Figueroa, Resource Development Director, to donate through your IRA (828) 793-0072 or email Jessie@HomewardBoundWNC.org
