Use Your IRA to Make an Eternal Difference

If you're age 70½ or older, you can use your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to make a meaningful gift. This special way of giving is called a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) or IRA Charitable Rollover. It’s a simple, powerful way to steward your resources for God’s Kingdom—without increasing your taxable income.

How It Works:

  • You must be 70½ or older to make a QCD.

  • You can transfer up to $108,000 per year directly from your IRA.

  • The gift counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) if you're 73 or older.

  • Because the distribution goes straight to charity, it’s not counted as taxable income—which may reduce your overall tax burden.

Benefits of an IRA Gift:

  1. Satisfy your RMD (if applicable)

  2. Reduce your taxable income

  3. Give from assets you may not need now

  4. Make a lasting spiritual impact
