Give from Your IRA — QCDs and RMDs
If you are age 70½ or older, you may be able to support Suncoast Storytellers through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)—a gift sent directly from your eligible IRA.
If you are required to take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from your IRA, a qualifying QCD can satisfy all or part of that year’s requirement. The qualifying gift amount is excluded from your taxable income, subject to IRS requirements and annual limits.
You do not need to be taking RMDs to make a QCD. Eligibility for QCD giving begins at age 70½.
