All of this work depends on your financial support to keep us moving forward.
Today is “Giving Tuesday,” so please consider giving to the MLTF.
Here’s how you can do that:
4. Giving through your IRA – If you are 70½ or older, you can make tax-free charitable gifts of up to $100,000 per year directly from your IRA to eligible charities. The NLG Foundation is an eligible charity and can accept gifts for the benefit of the MLTF. For more information on how to do this, please visit: https://www.nlg.org/nlgf/qcd/, but please be sure to contact the Guild Foundation at nlgfoundation@nlg.org to let them know the donation is coming and that it should be directed to the MLTF. And, as always, you should talk with your financial representative or tax adviser before making a decision that alters your tax situation.In solidarity,
