Did you know your retirement savings can also help provide access to justice?

If you are 70½ or older, you may be able to make a gift directly from your IRA to JAMLAC through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), sometimes called an IRA charitable rollover. For those who are required to take annual distributions from their IRA, a qualified charitable gift may also count toward all or part of that requirement.

The process can be simple: instead of receiving the funds yourself and then making a donation, you ask your IRA administrator to send the contribution directly to JAMLAC. When the applicable IRS requirements are met, the distribution generally is not included in your taxable income.

Your gift can help JAMLAC continue providing compassionate legal representation to people facing poverty and oppression while offering you another meaningful way to plan your charitable giving.

Interested in making a gift from your IRA? Contact Nikki Koster at 303-681-8415 or [email protected] to learn more about how to get started.

"Anything is possible with perseverance and patience."

For years, Sergio wanted to become a United States citizen. His family wanted it even more.
Sergio lives with dementia. For his daughter Elena, who cares for both of her parents and drives her father to every medical appointment, citizenship was never just a milestone to celebrate. It was protection. It was the peace of mind that comes from knowing your father cannot be separated from the country where his family lives, and that the benefits and care he depends on will not one day be pulled out from under him.
The path there was not easy. Applicants for naturalization are normally required to demonstrate ...
