There are easy and convenient ways to give through your IRA:
The IRA Charitable Rollover
If you are over the age of 70 ½ you can make a distribution (up to $100,000) directly from your IRA to a qualified charity, of which The Huntington is one, without having to pay income taxes on the money. Simply instruct your plan administrator to send a specific dollar amount directly to The Huntington via check or electronic transfer.
This popular gift option is commonly called the IRA charitable rollover, but you may also see it referred to as a qualified charitable distribution (QCD).
Designate the Huntington as beneficiary of your IRA
Please consider naming The Huntington as a beneficiary of your retirement account. You can add The Huntington as a full or partial beneficiary, or designate a percentage of your accounts.
There may be tax advantages for you in making a gift from your IRA, but please consult with your own qualified financial, legal, and /or tax advisor prior to making any decisions about your charitable giving.
