IRA Distribution
When planning your IRA withdrawal strategy, consider making charitable donations through a qualified charitable distribution (QCD). A QCD is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA, payable to a qualified charity. QCDs can be counted toward satisfying your required minimum distributions (RMDs) for the year, as long as certain rules are met. In addition to the benefits of giving to charity, a QCD excludes the amount donated from taxable income, which is unlike regular withdrawals from an IRA. Keeping your taxable income lower may reduce the impact to certain tax credits and deductions, including Social Security and Medicare. Also, QCDs don’t require that you itemize, which due to the recent tax law changes, means you may decide to take advantage of the higher standard deduction, but still use a QCD for charitable giving.
Contact your finance professional to see if you meet the requirements for making a qualified charitable distribution.
Walmart Spark Good
Walmart recently launched Walmart Spark Good Round Up where customers can round up their purchases to the nearest dollar and donate the change to their favorite charity. Paws4ever is listed under our legal name, Animal Protection Society of Orange County. We would love for you to choose us as your charity to receive these donations every time you shop on Walmart.com.
