DONATE TO JCOR FROM YOUR IRA
IRA owners age 70 1/2 or older can make a tax-free charitable contribution.
Charitable contributions can only be made from IRAs, not 401(k)s or similar types of retirement accounts. You don’t need to itemize your taxes in order to make an IRA charitable distribution. An IRA charitable contribution also satisfies the required minimum distribution requirement (RMD) for your IRA. A Qualified Charitable Distribution is a direct transfer of funds from an IRA custodian, payable to a qualified charity, as described in the QCD provision in the Internal Revenue Code. JCOR is a qualified charity.
