If you are age 70½ or older and have a traditional Individual Retirement Account (IRA), you may be eligible to make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) directly to Lifebox. These gifts are a tax-efficient way to give—QCDs can satisfy part or all of your required minimum distribution and are typically excluded from your taxable income.
How to Give Through Your IRA:
1. Contact your IRA administrator and request a direct transfer of funds to Lifebox. Be sure to reference our legal contribution details:
Legal Name: Lifebox Foundation
US Federal EIN #: 46-2266526
England and Wales Charity #: 1143018
US Address: 495 Henry Street #1001, Brooklyn, NY 11231
UK Address: 21 Portland Place, London, W1B 1PY
2. If making a QCD by check, please make the check payable to Lifebox and mail it to our U.S. address. Be sure to include your name, address, and email so we can properly acknowledge your gift.
To ensure your contribution is processed accurately, we recommend notifying us at [email protected] when you initiate your gift.
