Upcoming Event Spotlight: IRA Rollover Gift Info Session
Join Rockford University alum and tax accountant Betsey Bergstrom for this informative session!
Making a gift to a charity directly from your IRA comes with a number of advantages, including:
- Your gift is excluded from taxable income, which is a nice tax benefit!
- It may prevent you from being pushed into a higher tax bracket and help you avoid the limit on charitable deductions.
- It is easy to make — just notify your IRA custodian.
- It allows you to make a significant gift to support Rockford University.
