You can make a Qualified Charitable Contribution (QCD) directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and support a cause that matters to you.

Why make a QCD?

• Make a difference today: Your gift ensures access to essential services for thousands of North Bay residents.
• Fulfill Your RMD: For individuals 73 or older, QCDs count toward your annual required minimum distribution (RMD).
• Tax Benefits: In 2024, donations of up to $150,000 (or $210,000 for married couples with separate IRAs) can be excluded from taxable income.
• Medicare Premiums and Taxable SSI: QCDs may reduce your annual income level, potentially lowering your Medicare premiums and decreasing taxable Social Security amount.
