Donations planifiées

Les dons planifiés sont l'une des contributions les plus importantes que vous pouvez faire pour assurer l'avenir de l'Adirondack Experience, de ses collections et de ses programmes. Vous pouvez bénéficier d'avantages fiscaux et successoraux substantiels grâce aux dons planifiés, en particulier s'ils sont financés par des dons d'actions ou de biens immobiliers à valeur ajoutée. Les dons peuvent prendre la forme d'un legs, d'une fiducie résiduelle de bienfaisance, d'une fiducie principale de bienfaisance, de dons d'actifs de régimes de retraite et de polices d'assurance-vie, et de biens personnels ou immobiliers tangibles.

Le bureau de l'avancement institutionnel d'Adirondack Experience sera heureux de discuter avec vous des différentes possibilités de dons planifiés. Pour de plus amples informations, veuillez contacter l'Office of Institutional Advancement au 518.352.7311, poste 125.

Make a Gift Through Your IRA

If you are age 70½ or older, you can make a tax-wise gift directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to Adirondack Experience. These gifts, known as Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), are a wonderful way to support the museum while reducing your taxable income.

Benefits of Giving Through an IRA

• Reduce Taxable Income – A QCD is not counted as taxable income, which may lower your overall tax bill.
• Meet Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) – If you are 73 or older, gifts made through a QCD count toward your annual required minimum distribution.
• Simple and Direct – Funds are transferred directly from your IRA to Adirondack Experience—no need to itemize deductions.
• Impact Today – Your gift supports ADKX’s work immediately, helping to preserve and share the history and culture of the Adirondacks.

How to Make an IRA Gift to ADKX

1. Contact your IRA administrator to request a Qualified Charitable Distribution directly to Adirondack Experience.
2. Provide the following details:
   • Legal Name: Adirondack Historical Association (dba Adirondack Experience)
   • EIN: 15-0532200
   • Address: 9097 State Route 30, Blue Mountain Lake, NY 12812
3. Let us know about your gift so we can thank you and ensure your gift is directed according to your wishes.

Important Notes

• Gifts must be transferred directly from your IRA to Adirondack Experience to qualify as a QCD.
• You may contribute up to $100,000 per year through QCDs (married couples can each give up to $100,000 from their own IRAs).
