Looking for another way to support the Eco-Justice Center? Consider these Legacy Giving options:
Roll over your IRA annual distributions to the Eco-Justice Center. This is a unique way to begin building your charitable legacy during your lifetime. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires anyone, who has reached the age of 70-½ years, and who has a tax-deferred retirement account, such as IRAs, to annually withdraw a minimum amount from these accounts and pay taxes. The amount, referred to as the Minimum Required Distribution (MRD), depends on the balance of your retirement account at the end of the previous calendar year. IRAs have a special provision, known as a charitable rollover, where one can transfer assets up to $100,000 dollars annually to public charities directly, exempting them from paying taxes.
