Year End Giving –
If you are so inclined to make a charitable cash donation to the PIL HOF by the end of the year please go to https://pilhalloffame.org/ and click on the Support PIL HOF button. Other options for your consideration are below:
- Make charitable contributions using appreciated assets: Make your charitable contributions with long term appreciated assets whenever possible, instead of using cash. Giving securities directly to a charity (or Donor Advised Fund) not only avoids capital gains taxes but also helps minimize your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) which can reduce your overall tax liability.
- Make Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) from your IRA: By making distributions of up to $100,000 directly from your IRA to a charity, you avoid including the IRA distribution in your income. This helps to reduce your AGI which is used in many limitations, lowering your taxes and sometimes, if applicable, Medicare premiums.
