Tax-free IRA Distribution
Thanks to temporary changes in IRS code through the Pension Protection
Act, taxpayers who are at least 70 1/2 years old may make tax-free
charitable distributions directly to a non-profit organization from
a traditional or ROTH IRA.
The new law allows qualified individuals to transfer up to $100,000
in a given year directly from an IRA to a charitable organization,
like the Alzheimer’s Association, Houston and Southeast Texas Chapter,
and pay no income tax on that distribution.
Please note that the donation must be transferred directly from the
IRA to the charity. Donors may not personally take possession of the
withdrawn funds and later make a gift to a charity and still benefit
from a tax-free distribution.
The Pension Protection Act is only in effect until December 31, 2007.
Speak with your financial advisor to ensure this new and temporary
opportunity meets your financial and philanthropic goals.
Memory Tree
In the first floor elevator lobby of our office, we have a "Memory Tree"
that contains metal leaves which can be purchased and engraved with a
message from the donor. If you would like more information about this
method of donation, please

for more information.
Donate Your Vehicle
Are you thinking of selling or trading in that old car, boat or RV?
Why not donate it instead? As a charitable contribution, your donated
vehicle could make a big difference to our Chapter. We will make
arrangements to conveniently and quickly pick-up your vehicle donation
at no cost to you. Car Program, LLC, America's largest and most trusted
car donation center, will handle the title transfer requirements and
provide you with a tax deductible donation receipt at the time of pick-up.
For more details please call 713-314-1331. For more information about Car Program,
LLC please visit this link.
Give Through Your Employer
Many organizations allow employees to make ongoing donations automatically
from their paychecks to their favorite charitable organizations through
employee giving programs. Check with your organization’s personnel
office to find out if you can make your donations to the Houston and
Southeast Texas Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association through your employer.
Double Or Even Triple Your Donations To The Chapter!
Your gift to the Houston and Southeast Texas Chapter of the Alzheimer’s
Association could be matched dollar for dollar by your company through
matching gift programs. Check with your company’s personnel office to
find out if your company will match your contribution to this Chapter
of the Alzheimer’s Association.
Once you have determined that your organization matches donations made
to our Chapter, obtain the appropriate form from your personnel/human
resources office and send it with a copy of your gift receipt to:
Alzheimer's Association
