LYCOMING COLLEGE 2023 SPRING MAGAZINE

To learn how you can make this type of gift as part of Lycoming’s Days of Giving, please contact Robb Dietrich, assistant vice president for major and planned gifts, at dietrich@lycoming.edu or 570-321-4401. 3 Lycoming College’s 5th annual Days of Giving happen on April 18-19, 2023. With a little bit of advance planning, you can make a big impact with your gift while also maximizing the tax benefits for yourself! Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), gifts from a Donor Advised Fund (DAF), and gifts of appreciated stock are some of the most tax-efficient ways to support the College. QCDs DAFs STOCKS If you are 70½ years old or greater, you can make a tax-free gift to Lycoming from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) without ever realizing it as income. In addition, if you are 73 or older, a QCD can satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). If you have a Donor Advised Fund, you’ve already received tax benefits, so put that money to good use by making a grant to Lycoming! Lycoming receives the full market value of the stock while you avoid capital gains tax and, if you itemize, you can take a charitable tax deduction.
