Qualified Charitable Distributions

Are you 70.5 or older with a traditional IRA? If so, you’re eligible to make a tax-free donation directly from your IRA to Town Hall Seattle, regardless of whether or not you itemize on your return. Donating to the Town Hall Seattle directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is both convenient and a tax-wise way to support the organization you love.

  • The SECURE Act increases the age individuals must begin taking Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from their retirement savings from 70½ to 72
  • You may still make a gift from your IRA if you are 70½ years of age on the date of the gift
  • Funds must be transferred directly to the Town Hall or other charity from your IRA
  • If you are 70½ years of age or older (but under 72), any QCDs, though excluded from taxable income, may be included in calculating your future Required Minimum Distributions
  • Please always consult your financial advisor to determine how donating through your retirement fund applies to your specific situation.

To process your donation please, please contact your financial advisor or the company that services your IRA. Please notify us directly when you donate from your IRA – including the amount and financial institution name. Financial institutions send us checks without the donor’s name, so it’s important you let us know so we can thank you!
