IRA Rollover
The tax law favors charitable giving from IRA’s provided you are at least 70 1/2 years old. A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows IRA owners to distribute funds directly from their IRA to Family Promise Rochester. This is beneficial for several reasons. The QCD counts toward satisfying the individuals required minimum distribution for that year, the distribution is excluded from the individuals income, and since most individuals will now use the higher standard deduction when they file their taxes, they may not be hurt by not claiming the donation as an itemized deduction. If you feel this is something you may be interested in we suggest you consult your tax professional before implementation.
Donor Advised Fund
There can be tax benefits to bundling or stacking your donations. The recent tax law change made the standard deduction more attractive, increasing it to $25,900 for a married couple and to $27,000 for the year 2022 if they are over 65 years old. If you have the capacity to stack or bunch donations and fund multiple years of your typical giving in one year, it may be possible to chose the higher allowed deduction in alternating years. However, choosing this strategy may cause concern about the impact on FPR since you would be making sizable donations in some years and none in other years. The solution to this is the use of a Donor Advised Fund (DAF). By funding the DAF with the amount you plan to give to FPR over the next several years it allows you to take a deduction greater than the standard deduction in one year and then request that the DAF distribute the funds over several years. The important thing to understand is that the year you give the funds to the DAF is when you get the deduction, not the year(s) they distribute it to FPR. This allows you to itemize deductions in the year you donate it to the DAF and claim the higher standardized deduction in subsequent years as the DAF distributes the funds to FPR. If you feel this may be something you are interested in exploring we suggest you consult your tax advisor before implementation.
