Nature is dynamic. So are the ways you can support it.

These increasingly popular options are not only efficient ways to give, but may also provide you with significant tax savings.

Make a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA
If you are 70 ½ or older and have a traditional Individual Retirement Account (IRA), you are eligible to make a gift from your IRA to WWF. In many cases, these gifts are 100% tax-free.

When you use cash or other assets to establish a charitable gift annuity at WWF, you’ll receive secure, fixed payments for life for you and/or someone you choose—and you’ll also receive tax benefits.
