Please Take Advantage of the IRA Charitable Rollover
On December 18, 2015, President Obama signed into law the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act, which reinstated the IRA Charitable Rollover provision allowing individuals aged 70 ½ and older to transfer their mandatory minimum distribution (up to $100,000) directly to qualified charities.
​
You can make your mandatory distribution into a wonderful gift for the Susquehanna County Historical Society & Free Library Association.
Take advantage of this giving opportunity!
​
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR THE SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY & FREE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION – AND YOU

A distribution must be made directly from the trustee/administrator of your IRA directly to the SCHS&FLA, satisfying the required minimum distribution rule (you cannot receive the distribution prior to gifting to charity without incurring tax liability).
