At age 73, you鈥檙e required to start taking a minimum distribution from your IRA. But did you know You can make direct donations to charitable organizations, called Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), beginning at age 70陆.

Reduce taxes for your heirs with one simple beneficiary change.
Many donors include charitable gifts to 91成人导航 in their estate plans. One tax-smart strategy is to designate 91成人导航 as a beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k), or 403(b) account, or to designate a charitable gift to 91成人导航 specifically from your retirement account as part of your will or trust allowing your loved ones to receive non-taxable assets. Designating a charitable gift be paid from a retirement account allows your heirs to receive other, non-taxable assets, from your estate potentially saving your loved ones income taxes.

Leverage 鈥渂unching鈥 or use a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) to give annually.
If your total itemized deductions are less than $14,600 (for single filers) or $29,200 (for married couples filing jointly), you could benefit from 鈥淏unching鈥 your 2024 and 2025 charitable donations together in 2024 may produce a larger one-time deduction versus two years鈥 standard deductions.

Take advantage of inflation by donating non-cash assets.
As we continue to experience rising costs, your own assets may be increasing in value. Consider making year-end charitable gifts using appreciated non-cash assets rather than cash. Appreciated assets such as stocks create two tax benefits: You鈥檒l offset capital gains, and you鈥檒l receive a charitable deduction on your tax return.

Fund an annuity or trust.
By funding a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA) or charitable trust you can create a stream of income for yourself or loved ones.

Each year 91成人导航鈥檚 Office of Estate and Gift Planning receives many inquiries about how to start an estate plan, which attorney to use, how to save taxes and ways to provide for loved ones.
