OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE

If you are 70 ½ years of age or older and have an IRA, you may be able to help make a difference in the fight against cancer.

The Pension Protection Act allows you to use a portion of your IRA for a charitable gift, which can help you accomplish important financial goals, such as decreasing your income tax burden.

Benefits are only available through December 31, 2007, so talk with your financial advisor today about taking advantage of this opportunity to support the American Cancer Society.

For more information, call us toll-free at 1-800-ACS-2345 to speak to an ACS representative.
