Bequests

By making a bequest to Komen, a gift in your will or living trust, ensures future funding for critical breast cancer research and care is provided. Add Komen to your existing will or trust or write a will for free online and create a bequest with our partner, FreeWill.

IRA Charitable Rollover

Donors 70.5 and older are eligible to make a tax-free gift to Susan G. Komen directly from their IRA called a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). These gifts are tax-free, regardless of whether or not you itemize deductions on your tax return and can lower your taxable income. If you have to take a Required Minimum Distribution, QCDs are one way to reduce the tax liability.

Stock Gifts

Gifts of appreciated stock and securities are a cost-effective and tax-friendly way to fund research and care for those facing breast cancer. You may be eligible for a tax deduction based on their full fair-market-value and avoid paying the capital gains tax.
