Would you like to see your IRA philanthropic dollars at work? Consider making a donation to the Association for Women in Mathematics now to jump-start your legacy. AWM members who are 70? years old or older may be able to take advantage of an easy way to benefit the Association for Women in Mathematics and receive tax benefits in return. You can give up to $100,000 from your IRA directly to a qualified charity such as ours without having to pay income taxes on the money. Why consider this gift now? ? Your gift will be put to use today, allowing you to see the difference your donation is making. ? You pay no federal or state income taxes on the gift. The transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction, so you benefit even if you do not itemize your deductions. ? If you have not yet taken your required minimum distribution for the year, your IRA charitable rollover gift may satisfy all or part of that requirement. To find out more, scan the QR code or go to bit.ly/AWM-IRA. You may also contact your plan advisor/custodian/trustee, or email [email protected] to begin this simple process.

We all know at least one professor, but academic jobs are actually quite varied. Join us on November 8 at 4:00 p.m. ET during the next installment of AWM's Student Chapter Seminar Series for a conversation with women who work in academia, and to learn about their experiences and journeys. Registration for the event is required, so be sure to go to https://lnkd.in/gbHcUpUR to sign up and to learn more about our speakers! #AWM #AWMMath #WomenInMath #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM

Year end tax planning underway? Consider donating to The Association for Women in Mathematics via your IRA. Meet Sarah, a bright and driven young woman passionate about mathematics. "I find beauty in numbers, their patterns, their symmetry," she once told us, "but it's disheartening to see so few women in my advanced math classes." The Association for Women in Mathematics is here to provide a community for women like Sarah, promoting gender-inclusivity and equitable opportunities across the mathematical sciences. But without your help, we risk losing more women like Sarah from the field of mathematics due to a lack of representation and support. Fortunately, there's a way you can make an immediate, impactful difference. By making a charitable donation through your Individual Retirement Account (IRA), you can provide significant support to our cause while also receiving tax benefits. Donating directly from your IRA to AWM is excluded from federal income tax, making your contribution more efficient and hassle-free. Scan the QR code or go to https://bit.ly/AWM-IRA for more information, or email [email protected] to begin this simple process. Your IRA donation will directly support programs designed to empower, inspire, and support girls and women in mathematics. With your help, we can create a world where women like Sarah no longer feel like the odd ones out in their math classes. #AWM #AWMMath #WomenInMath #Mathematics #WomeninScience #IRAGiving #GirlsInSTEM #WomenInSTEM
