IRA charitable contributions

If you're 70½ or older, you can contribute to St. Jude from your IRA and potentially receive tax benefits. You can have your IRA administrator use our sample letter.

Donor-advised funds

You can recommend a grant from your donor-advised fund (DAF) by calling your fund manager or by signing in to your granting institution and selecting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Stock

When gifting stock, you can reference our transfer form, or call us at (800) 395-4341 to inform us of your gift so we can properly acknowledge your gift and provide you with a tax receipt.

Charitable gift annuities

Charitable gift annuities (CGAs) may interest you if you want to transfer cash or securities to St. Jude and receive lifetime payments for yourself or a loved one.

Fund a charitable gift annuity with stock or an IRA

Did you know that you can fund a CGA through your securities or your IRA?

Via securities and stocks: Instead of selling your stock and giving from the proceeds, you may fund a CGA directly from your stock and bypass a portion of the capital gains tax with the charitable portion of your gift.
Via IRA: IRA holders age 70½ and above can establish one or more CGAs up to $54,000 in total from their qualified charitable distribution (QCD). This total amount counts toward the maximum annual QCD limit of $108,000. This opportunity is available only once in a lifetime and must be completed within a single calendar year.

While St. Jude representatives are happy to discuss planned giving options, you should consult a tax advisor or other professional for additional information regarding your specific situation.
