If you are 70½ or older, a gift from your IRA is a powerful and tax-wise way to support the mission of University of Florida Performing Arts (UFPA). Your generosity can make a lasting impact while helping you meet your required minimum distribution (RMD) and reduce your taxable income.
Benefits of Giving Through Your IRA
- Avoid paying income taxes on transfers of up to $108,000 per year
- Satisfy all or part of your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year
- Make an immediate impact on UFPA’s world-class performances, education, and outreach programs
How to Make Your Gift
Ask your IRA administrator to make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) directly to:
Legal Name: The University of Florida Foundation, Inc.
Mailing Address: 1938 West University Avenue, Gainesville, FL 32603
Federal Tax ID Number (EIN): 59-0974739
To ensure your gift is properly designated to support UFPA, please notify us when your gift is initiated. We’re happy to work with you and your advisor to make the process seamless.
