Can I give from my donor-advised fund?
Yes! Please Click here to inform The Dallas Express of your intent to donate from your donor-advised fund. This notification will ensure that you receive proper acknowledgement of the gift.
Can I make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from my Individual Retirement Account?
Yes. Individuals aged 70 ½ or older can give to The Dallas Express from their Individual Retirement Account. Simply instruct your IRA Administrator to transfer the amount directly from your IRA to The Dallas Express.
An individual may transfer up to $100,000 per year from their IRA to charitable organizations (married couples up to $200,000). Because your gift is a direct transfer from your IRA to The Dallas Express, it does not create taxable income for you. Gifts directly from an IRA are not considered charitable deductions for income tax purposes.
If you are age 72 or older, the gift from your IRA can count toward your Required Minimum Distribution!
Can I name the DX as a beneficiary in my will or trust?
Yes, the most common way to support The Dallas Express through your will or living trust is to amend the document with the following language:
“I give to Dallas Express Media, (Tax ID #85-3994413), a nonprofit organization currently located in Dallas, TX, or its successor thereto, [the sum of $ ______] [or ______ % of my estate] to be used for its general support and charitable purpose without restriction.”
