Summary

This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow charitable rollovers from individual retirement accounts (IRAs) to donor advised funds. Currently, IRA owners are able to transfer funds directly to charities as qualified charitable distributions, but this option was not available for donor advised funds, which are charitable accounts established at nonprofits. The bill removes this restriction, allowing IRA owners to roll over retirement funds to donor advised funds, which they can then allocate to charities over time. The change is effective immediately for distributions made after enactment of the Act.
