If your're 70 ½ or better and getting withdrawals from an IRA, consider a new law that encourages donations to a qualified public charity - like the Federation - using IRA dollars, tax free. The dollars must transfer directly from your IRA, not come from your wallet. They count as your required IRA withdrawals and you can give up to $100,000. This new Charitable IRA Rollover expires at the end of 2007. Call Linda Zelig at 651/783-5006 to learn more about this great way to put your IRA to work for seniors in Minnesota.
