IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

Make a Tax-Smart Gift with an IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

If you're age 70½ or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) directly from your IRA to St. Labre. A QCD allows you to support Native American students while potentially reducing your taxable income. If you're subject to Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), your gift may also count toward your annual requirement.

Making a QCD is simple:
