Ways to Give
A gift in your will
Whether you designate a specific amount or leave a percentage of your estate, your legacy gift will fuel WQW’s mission.
Non-cash assets
Donating certain non-cash assets like real estate can provide significant tax benefits while advancing our mission.
Beneficiary designations
Your retirement plans, life insurance policies, and annuities can all help veterans thrive after military service.
Qualified charitable distributions
- If you are 70 1/2 or older, you can give up to $100,000 per year from your IRA, allowing you to exclude the amount of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from your income, even if you don’t itemize your taxes annually.
Tax-Saving Opportunity for Montana Residents
