Ways To Donate
Let your IRA help RMRP!

tax hand

The recently enacted 2010 Tax Relief Act extended the direct IRA transfer to charity rules through the end of 2011 for taxpayers who are age 70 ½ or older. It allows these taxpayers to request their IRA administrators make distributions directly to their favorite charities. Donors can transfer IRA assets of up to $100,000 per tax year directly to charitable organizations, including RMRP—so please donate now for the 2010 tax year and then again for the 2011 tax year. The direct contribution from the IRA can be made with zero tax consequences and is counted toward the donor's required minimum distribution.

  • Perching material for one cage costs $25.
  • X-rays can run up to $100.
  • Surgery to repair one fracture costs $250.
