IRA to Gift Annuity Rollover

You may be looking for a way to help further our mission and enhance your income. If you are 70½ or older, you can make a one-time IRA rollover to fund a charitable gift annuity and receive fixed payments for life.

Benefits of an IRA to gift annuity rollover

• Reduce your taxes with a one-time transfer of up to $55,000 from your IRA to a Gift Annuity
• Receive lifetime fixed payments for you and, if you choose, for your spouse
• Potentially reduce your required minimum distribution (RMD) this year
• Help further the work and mission of Luther Seminary
