Can you use your retirement plan for donations? Yes, you can use your retirement plan (including IRA, 401(K) and Keogh plans) to make a gift to Native Forest Council. In fact, leaving your retirement plan to the Council can save your heirs both income and estate taxes. Benefits: If someone other than your spouse is named as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, these assets may be subject to taxes that can leave your heirs with less than 25 cents on the dollar. By leaving these assets to Native Forest Council, you can avoid these taxes and leave a greater gift for the Council. And a legacy of public lands protection for your heirs.
