YOUR GENEROSITY

TODAY

If you are 70 ½ years or older , you can take advantage of a simple way to help our students and receive tax benefits in return . You can give any amount up to $ 100,000 per year from your IRA directly to Gwynedd Mercy University without having to pay income taxes on the money .
Why Consider This Gift ?

Make a Tax-Free Gift From Your IRA

▶ Your gift will be put to use today , allowing you to see the difference your donation is making .
▶ You pay no income taxes on the gift . The transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction , so you benefit even if you do not itemize your tax deductions .
▶ If you have not yet taken your required minimum distribution for the year , your IRA charitable rollover gift can satisfy all or part of that requirement .
