Special one-time opportunity: You can make a gift of up to $50,000 from your IRA to establish a Harvard gift annuity that will pay you annual income for life and benefit HBS in the future. In that same year, you can also transfer up to $50,000 from your IRA to HBS as an outright gift, for a total gift of $100,000, as allowed by IRS rules.
