8 · www.stpaulseniors.org LUV Update - Joyce Frye Love Uniting Volunteers (LUV), St. Paul’s volunteer auxiliary for over 20 years, had a fun summer and early fall season and is now gearing up for the holidays. LUV hosted its annual Independence Day Ice Cream Social at St. Paul’s Manor, which included a live band and cool treats. We then focused on preparations for the LUV Gala and everyone had a great time raising money for the essential services of St. Paul's. Now, we're looking forward to the holiday season and our annual Christmas lunch on December 11 th . We'll also be helping stuff the holiday gift bags for Residents, which always warms our hearts. If you would like to become a member of LUV and help with our various events, please contact me at (619) 298-9011. Charitable Giving Can be More Than Just Giving Cash Just a reminder that IRA owners age 70 ½ or older may gift up to $100,000 from their IRA or Roth IRA to a qualified charity with no tax consequences through 2009. If this appeals to you, please contact Foundation Director Todd Kaprielian and he will work with you and your custodian to transfer funds. In order to qualify, Charitable IRA Rollover donors must direct their IRA custodian to transfer funds directly to St. Paul's. Donor-advised funds and supporting organizations are not eligible. Many donors have already made gifts using this new opportunity. Although there is no charitable income tax deduction, the amount you transfer will not incur any income tax. It is simply a very convenient way to make a gift. Additionally, if you are an IRA owner who does not itemize, this rollover will allow you to reduce your taxable income and save on current taxes. If you have a substantial amount in your IRA, this may be the best way to make a charitable gift this year – especially if you are already giving to the 50% of adjusted gross income level, which is the maximum permissible level for cash gifts each year. This new law now allows giving to 50% of adjusted gross income from regular assets and “over and above” gifts from IRAs. Since the IRA gift is not included in taxable income, it will have no impact on your regular income and other charitable gifts. Heritage Society - Are You A Member? St. Paul's Senior Homes & Services is honored that numerous individuals have designated us as beneficiaries in their wills, gift annuities, life insurance policies and remainder trusts. With their planned gift, they have become members of our Heritage Society, a leading group of community supporters that want to ensure there is a future for seniors that values dignity, independence and choice at all stages of life. If you have already designated St. Paul's as a beneficiary, please contact the Foundation at (619) 239-6900 and let us know. We want to include you as a member, and keep you informed of the most recent developments at St. Paul's.
