If you are over 70½ years old and own an IRA, an easy way to donate to MCEC is through IRA Charitable Rollovers. This allows you to transfer up to $100,000 to MCEC, per year, from your pre-tax traditional or Roth IRA. This contribution is not considered taxable income. 

For a donation to qualify as an IRA Charitable Rollover, you must instruct your financial advisor, bank, or IRA administrator to follow these simple steps:

1. Transfer funds directly to MCEC from your traditional or Roth IRA 
2. Verify you as the IRA account owner and include your name and address on the distribution check or accompanying materials
3. Send the information to:
   Military Child Education Coalition 
   909 Mountain Lion Circle 
   Harker Heights, TX 76548 
   Tax ID: #74-2889416

Your donation of appreciated stock can bring growing value to military-connected children and comes with a couple additional benefits: 

• It’s entitled to an income tax charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the stock on the date of the gift.  
• It might be exempt from capital gains taxes and provide better tax benefits than a cash contribution.
