Did you know? All about qualified charitable distributions, or QCDs.

Beginning at age 73, individuals are required by the IRS to withdraw a certain amount from their IRA each year. This is called a required minimum distribution (RMD).

Some donors choose to give directly from their IRA as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). Making charitable gifts in this way can offer meaningful tax advantages.

Because a QCD goes directly from your IRA to charity it does not count as taxable income, which can make it one of the most tax-efficient ways to support a cause you care about.

A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows individuals aged 70½ and older to make a tax-free gift directly from their IRA. Making a gift to ABF through a #QCD is a simple, meaningful way to meet annual distribution requirements while advancing brain research. #GiveSmart
