IRA Rollovers Provide Unique Opportunity for UCSF Donors

The Pension Protection Act of 2006, signed into law in August by President Bush, includes a charitable giving provision that permits new tax-free distributions from IRAs. Known as the charitable IRA rollover, the provision allows individuals age 70 and a half and older who have a traditional or Roth IRA to:
  • make a direct transfer from their IRA to a public charity of up to $100,000 per year in 2006 and 2007;
  • exclude the Charitable IRA Rollover amount from their taxable income;
  • satisfy their required minimum distribution by making a direct charitable IRA rollover; and
  • continue to make deductible gifts to charities up to the percentage limitations in addition to the charitable IRA rollover.
