You can give online here by selecting an amount and then choosing “Camp Walter Scott” on the following screen.

Checks can be mailed to the CCIW Regional office at 401 W. Jefferson St. Bloomington IL, 61701. Please make them payable to “CCIW” with a memo of “Camp Walter Scott”.

Camp Walter Scott exists today in part because of the generosity of individuals. In the case of retirement funds, those with IRAs and over the age of 70 and 1/2 can donate up to $100,000 from their IRA directly to a charity and avoid paying income taxes on the distribution.

In a similar fashion, when planning estates, Camp Walter Scott can be named as a beneficiary which will not incur taxes on the donated assets. For both retirement and estate donations, check out more detailed information here.

Please note you should always consult with a financial professional when making distributions from your retirement accounts. Laws are subject to change and this information is not legal advice, but an option to consider when donating.
