Stock Gifts

A gift of securities (such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds) can be beneficial to you and to Andrus.

Andrus is a tax-exempt charitable organization, so a gift of securities that have been held longer than one year may be especially advantageous to you.  You will not pay capital gains taxes on a transfer of appreciated stock, and you will be able to claim a charitable income tax deduction for the full, appreciated value of the stock.

If you plan to make a gift of stock, please call Dorea Ferris, VP and Chief Advancement Officer at (914) 418-2871 with the name of the stock and the number of shares being transferred. Doing so will ensure that you receive credit for your gift.

Gifts From Your IRA

Assets in a traditional individual retirement account (IRA) can make a wonderful gift to Andrus.

If you or your spouse is age 70½ or older and must take distributions from your IRA, you are permitted to distribute up to $100,000 annually directly from your IRA to charity, without incurring income tax liability on the distribution. A distribution from your IRA will count toward your required minimum.

Please note that not every financial institution automatically identifies the donor on the IRA Rollover check, so please ask that they do so.

Donors between ages 59 ½ and 70 ½ are permitted to take distributions from their traditional retirement plans with no early-withdrawal penalty. The income tax liability you incur on this IRA withdrawal is partially offset by the charitable income tax deduction you will earn by making your gift. Please consult your tax advisor to make sure this type of gift works with your financial situation.

For more information, please call Dorea Ferris, VP and Chief Advancement Officer at (914) 418-2871.

Planned Gifts

Leaving a bequest to Andrus through your will or living trust (or a beneficiary on a life insurance policy) allows Andrus to continue to provide valuable services for generations to come.

You can give a specific asset, a dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or the balance of your estate after the payment of taxes, expenses and any other bequests that you make. For more information, please call Dorea Ferris, VP and Chief Advancement Officer at (914) 418-2871 to explore options with complete confidentiality, and please also consult your attorney or financial advisor.
