You may transfer up to $100,000 per year directly from a traditional or Roth IRA, avoid reporting the distribution as income, and have an immediate impact on our work to empower women and eliminate racism. If your spouse has a separate IRA, he or she is also eligible to make a charitable IRA rollover gift. The amount of the transfer will not be included in your taxable income, and the transferred amount counts toward the IRA’s required minimum distribution.
