Swifty invites you to explore year-end gift giving options that are good for you and good for pediatric brain cancer research!
Donating Your IRA Distributions
Some of our more “seasoned” donors have found that giving a gift directly from their IRA is an easy and efficient way to support Swifty. Individuals who are 70 ½ or older may transfer up to $100,000 a year directly from their traditional or Roth IRA to the Swifty Foundation. The amount of the transfer will not be included in your taxable income, and the transferred amount can count toward your required minimum distribution.
How to make your gift: contact your IRA custodian and request that a distribution be made directly to Swifty Foundation. Provide your IRA custodian with our tax ID number, 46-1853577, and contact information:
