IRA Charitable Donations (QCDs)

Are you at least 70 ½ years old?
Do you have an Individual Retirement Account (Traditional IRA) in the United States?

If you answered yes to both, Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) are the savviest way for you to maximize your charitable impact.

When you take a distribution from your IRA, it usually counts as income for tax purposes. QCDs, also called IRA Charitable Rollovers, are an exception. Individuals 70½ years of age or older can distribute up to $105,000 each year from their IRAs to their favorite qualifying 501(c)(3) organizations without the distribution counting as income.

IRS website has additional useful information on QCDs.

Note: The limit may increase annually to account for inflation.
