Your generosity today fuels student dreams, empowers faculty innovation, and helps Portland State University thrive. And with smart giving strategies, you can make a bigger impact while enjoying valuable tax savings.
Turn your IRA Into Impact—Tax-Free
If you're 70½ or older, you can give up to $108,000 directly from your IRA to the PSU Foundation—without paying income tax on the transfer. And, for those 73 or older, this gift can also count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), helping you meet IRS requirements while reducing your taxable income.
Invest in Possibility. Give Stock
Donating appreciated stock is a tax-savvy way to give that helps you and the PSU community thrive. When you transfer highly appreciated stock, you avoid paying capital gain taxes and receive a full fair market tax deduction for your gift.
Secure Your Path, Uplift Students
When you create a charitable gift annuity with a gift of $20,000 or more, you’ll receive fixed income payments for life—and help create lasting opportunities for students and faculty. You may also receive an immediate charitable tax deduction. This is available to donors age 65 or older.
