Give Through Your IRA

​

Naming LEAP as a beneficiary of your IRA or other retirement accounts can benefit your heirs and LEAP. Retirement accounts that have grown tax-free over time are generally the most desirable assets for charitable giving, as they are taxable to heirs when inherited.

​

Once you reach age 70½, you can donate up to $111,000 of your required minimum distribution (RMD) annually directly to LEAP through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), reducing your adjusted gross income for tax and Medicare payment calculations.

​

To make a QCD to LEAP, instruct your IRA administrator to send a distribution directly to:

LEAP, Inc.
31 Jefferson Street
New Haven, CT 06511
Tax ID: 22-2906547
