If you are 70½ or older, you can donate up to $100,000 directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to a qualified charity like PBS Utah without it counting as taxable income. This can lower your annual income level and possibly reduce your Medicare premiums and taxes on Social Security income.  

Simply direct a charitable distribution to PBS Utah at 101 South Wasatch Drive, SLC, Utah, 84112. Please include your name and address with your gift so we can send you a tax receipt. You can also notify us of your donation by contacting Ja’Naye Payne at jpayne@pbsutah.org or 801-581-3227.

*Please consult your financial advisor regarding the limitations on receiving member or giving club benefits.

PBS Utah is a department of the University of Utah, and all transfers occur through their account. If you wish to transfer Mutual Funds, please contact PBS Utah before transfer to ensure our account can accept the specific funds.

PBS Utah is unable to accept cryptocurrency at this time. If you are interested in making a gift using cryptocurrency, consider working with a Donor-Advised Fund.
