A tax-saving way to help the Y!

FOR THOSE 70½ YEARS OLD AND OLDER
You can give any amount (up to a maximum of $100,000) per year from your IRA directly to a qualified charity, such as the YMCA of South Hampton Roads, without having to pay income taxes on the money. Gifts of any value which are $100,000 or less are eligible for this benefit. You can feel good knowing that you are making a difference at the Y. This popular gift option is commonly called the IRA charitable rollover, but you may also see it referred to as a qualified charitable distribution, or QCD for short.

Are you interested in giving from your IRA? Seek advice from your financial or legal advisor. Then, contact Michele Catalano, Chief Development Officer, at (757) 275-9433 or mcatalano@ymcashr.org for more information.

The Y relies on the generosity of our corporate partners and sponsors to help us maintain and expand our services.
