IRA Charitable Rollover Rule Extended!
Learn more about giving to Barnard directly from your IRA

You may find it very tax efficient to designate your retirement plan to Barnard College.

  • Retirement plan assets that you own at death are subject not only to estate taxes, but also constitute taxable income for your heirs. For many individuals, combined estate and income taxes can diminish a bequest of retirement savings by up to 75%.

  • However, because Barnard is a tax-exempt organization, the College will normally receive the full amount of the plan's value.

Here is how you might list us on your retirement plan beneficiary form: "Barnard College, 3009 Broadway, New York, New York 10027, tax id. # 13-1628149."

If you have named Barnard as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, you might be interested in becoming a member of The Athena Society.
