IRA Charitable Rollover

Are you 70 1/2 years of age or older? If so, the IRA Charitable Rollover is a tax-smart and increasingly popular way of support non-profits. This permanent provision of the tax code allows you to transfer all or a portion of the required minimum distribution (RMD) directly to YouthPower365.

A charitable rollover of IRA funds to YouthPower365 will not count as taxable income in the year you make your gift, which may keep you in a lower tax bracket. Your gift to YouthPower365 counts toward your RMD. And you save taxes whether you claim the standard deduction or itemize.

Tax Refund

Have you heard about ReFUND CO? A new state tax refund donation program allows you to use some or all of your refund to directly support our work in the community! Consider a donation to YouthPower365 through your Colorado Tax Refund!

When the taxpayer has determined that they will get a Colorado refund, they will use the “Voluntary Contributions” schedule to choose an eligible nonprofit. Taxpayers should look for the new additional option of “Donate to a Colorado Nonprofit Fund”.

For more information on donating to YouthPower365 through a Tax Refund please contact us at 970.777.2015 or [email protected].
