How You Can Help
You can choose from three methods of support below. Insofar as the number of individual family sponsors is limited, the first two, Family Sponsor and Family Assistance, require that a sponsorship application be submitted and accepted prior to being assigned a specific family or person. The third method, Other Donations, allows you to direct your assistance to general support, skills training and community programs, or housing and emergency needs. Contributions are tax deductible under IRS 501(c)(3).
Qualified Charitable Distributions
Congress has reauthorized and made permanent the IRA charitable rollover. If you are 70 1/2 or older, you can now make a charitable gift of up to $100,000 from your IRA. Your gift will qualify for your required minimum distribution and you will not have to pay federal income tax on the amount given directly from your IRA to charity.
Please consider a gift to Family To Family, 505 W. St. Thomas More Way, Spokane, WA 99208. For more information, please contact your IRA administrator or tax adviser. You may also call or email Julianne Connell Sachs, Director, at (509) 593-8204 or ftfguatemala.gmail.com to let us know where you would like to direct your IRA charitable rollover gift.
