IRA Charitable Rollovers

Legislation passed in January of 2016 permanently allowing IRA rollovers of up to $100,000 per taxpayer per year to charities retroactively to the prior tax year. These rollovers to charity will not be subject to federal income tax as they would have been without this law.

To take advantage of this law, you must be over age 70½ and the transfer must come directly from your IRA custodian to a qualified charity, like the South Dakota Mines CARA. To initiate your gift, contact your IRA custodian and let them know you want to make a charitable gift from your IRA. Thank you for your support and for considering an IRA gift to us.

IRA custodians may send your gift to the South Dakota Mines CARA, 330 E Kansas City St, Rapid City, South Dakota 57701. Our federal tax ID number is 46-6011771.

  • Individuals must be at least 70 1/2 years old
  • Income tax liability on charitable distributions of up to $100,000 per year is avoided
  • Charitable distributions count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD)
  • Distributions must be to a qualified public charity (South Dakota Mines CARA qualifies)
  • Distribution process starts with individuals contacting their IRA custodian

    For more information, please contact Leah Mahoney, director of planned giving, CARA, 800.211.7591.
