A Tax-Free Gift: Donate from Your IRA Through Your Required Minimum Distribution

Did you know that you can contribute your required minimum distribution (RMD) from your IRA to Temple Beth El?

 Typically these distributions are taxable, but if you take them through a qualified charitable distribution (QCD), your donation will count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD) and be considered a tax-free gift. You can donate these funds as part of your annual membership contribution to help fund Temple Beth El’s programs and services, or donate to our endowment funds, such as the Endowment for Spiritual Leadership, the Yerusha Fund, or the Larry Kohn Chair of Jewish Learning Fund, to help secure Temple Beth El’s financial future. 

Please talk to your financial advisor or brokerage firm about how to make a gift from your IRA, or contact development committee co-chair Howie Erlanger (h.erlanger@gmail.com) for more information.
