★ Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)
Recommend a gift through your DAF—search “USO” (Tax ID: 13-1610451) with your provider.
★ Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) and Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs)
If age 70½+, instruct your IRA provider to send your gift directly to the USO; this qualifies toward your RMD and may reduce your taxable income.
★ Will or Trust
Include the USO in your plans; sample wording and information will be provided for your attorney. Please let us know if you’ve already included us in your plans.
★ Cryptocurrency
Ask about secure crypto donations—may provide unique tax benefits.

Tips for 2025
✓ Many donors are “bunching” several years’ gifts into 2025 for bigger tax savings before 2026 law changes affect deductions. Ask us how this works for you!
