IRA Legislation Offers a New Way to Support WSU
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA 2008) offers a new way to support WSU.
For a limited time, you may give directly to WSU from your IRA without reporting additional income. If you are age 70 1/2 or older on the date of the gift, you may be able to take advantage of this opportunity, which can:
-
Help you maximize Social Security benefits.
-
Assist those whose income level triggers a phase-out of exemptions or those whose gifts exceed their deduction limitations.
-
Benefit those who typically use the "Standard Deduction."
To learn how this or other gift planning opportunities might benefit you and Washington State University, contact the Gift Planning Office at 800-448-2978 or e-mail gpoffice@wsu.edu.
