Donation Support

Are you interested in donating to the Registry?

There are various ways to make a charitable gift to the African American Registry, which may provide tax advantages for you. Please consult your adviser for your best giving option(s). Below are a few recommendations for consideration. If you want more information or to have this information mailed to donate, call or text 612-822-6831 or click HERE.

IRA DISTRIBUTIONS

At age 70 ½, the law requires IRA owners to take mandatory minimum distributions. An increasingly popular way to make gifts tax-free is to transfer them to the African American Registry directly from the IRA or write a check for up to a $100,000 limit. Now that the IRA Charitable Rollover legislation is passed permanently, donors can plan each year.

DONOR-ADVISED FUNDS

Through Donor-Advised Funds, you make irrevocable contributions to a fund you establish, often in your name or to honor a family member. The most typical charitable sponsors are community foundations and funds affiliated with financial service firms. You then claim a charitable deduction for income tax purposes and recommend granting money to the African American Registry. These organizations work closely with us to fulfill your philanthropic goals. Please allow 2-3 months for your recommendation to be fulfilled by the end of the calendar year.

FAMILY FOUNDATIONS

Another option to match your philanthropic intent with the African American Registry’s education mission is to make a grant from your family foundation. By law, a private family foundation must distribute a minimum of 5% of its assets yearly to charity. The African American Registry often benefits from family foundations that give grants for general operations or to fund specific educational content or youth programs. We can work closely with family members and/or foundation-appointed administrators to jointly fulfill the mission of donors and the African American Registry.

Donors can be foundations or individuals. All contributions are 100% tax deductible. https://aaregistry.org/donate-money. African American Registry is grateful for your support. Contact us at info@aaregistry.org for more information on gifts, honorariums, and more.
