Gifts through your IRA

You can make current or future gift from your individual retirement account towards MLKCH

How it works

You can name MLKCH as a beneficiary of your individual retirement account (IRA). And, if you're 70½ or older, you can also give up to $100,000 per year directly from your IRA to MLKCH. This may help satisfy your required minimum distribution and reduce taxable income. Simply contact your IRA administrator to request a beneficiary update form or to initiate a distribution to MLKCH.

Organization information for you and your IRA administrator is below. Let us know if you'd like assistance with your gift.
