Charitable Giving and IRAs

If you wish to make a tax deductible contribution before the year ends, consider this: When you name The Carroll Center for the Blind as the beneficiary of your IRA, the Carroll Center will receive the full amount, tax-free and you will not be taxed.

Alternatively, if you withdrew the cash and then donated it, your contributions may not be fully deductible for income-tax purposes, because there are restrictions on charitable write-offs.
