Matching Gifts
Contact your employer to inquire about the eligibility of matching gifts, which can increase the impact of your charitable donation. A matching gift allows you to potentially double or triple your initial donation to STLE’s NextGen Fund. 

Give from Your IRA 
A tax-saving way to help STLE.

IRA Rollover
If you’re 70 ½ or older and own an individual retirement account (IRA), you can make a gift directly from your IRA to a qualified nonprofit organization like STLE. A charitable distribution directly from an IRA is not counted as taxable income, and it satisfies required minimum distributions (RMDs). You can distribute up to $100,000 each year.

How to Make your IRA Rollover Gift 
Before December 31 of this year: 
  • Contact your IRA administrator
  • Ask that your distribution be a charitable rollover to the STLE NextGen Fund
  • Contact STLE to inform us of your intention to make a gift via IRA rollover
