IRS Deductibility Status

The IRS Deductibility Status for the AREF (American Retirees Education Foundation) determines whether donations made to it are tax-deductible. AREF holds 501(c)(3) status, meaning it qualifies as a charitable organization under IRS guidelines, allowing contributions made by donors to be tax-deductible on their federal income taxes.

This document advises you that an individual who itemizes deductions may deduct contributions to most charitable organizations up to 50% of his or her adjusted gross income computed without regard to net operating loss carrybacks. Individuals generally may deduct charitable contributions to other organizations up to 30% of adjusted gross income.

This status is beneficial for donors because it can reduce their taxable income, offering a financial incentive for supporting AREF’s work. As a 501(c)(3), AREF is dedicated to educational initiatives and must meet strict IRS regulations that govern charitable activities and restrict lobbying efforts.
