WAYS TO GIVE

IRA Investments

A meaningful option for supporting Heart for Lebanon’s mission while thoughtfully aligning personal planning with long-term impact and faithful stewardship.

How to Give Through Your IRA

If you are 70½ or older, you can invest your required minimum distribution (or any amount up to $111,000) from your IRA as a tax-free rollover gift. Many investors to Heart for Lebanon also give from their IRA at their passing, designating Heart for Lebanon as a beneficiary; such gifts avoid income and death taxes.
