how to remember upReach in your will
Help UpReach Through Your IRA Required Minimum DISTRIBUTION
Qualified Charitable Donations and Required Minimum Distributions.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires owners of Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) to begin drawing down payments from their IRA after they turn 72 years old. You must make these distributions each year, and they are known as Required Minimum Distributions (RMD)
Donating to your favorite 501(c) 3 charities –like UpReach – is an easy way to satisfy your RMDs.
The IRS usually treats these distributions from an IRA as taxable income. However, if you make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), this is not the case. A QCD is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA trustee to a qualified charity.
MAKING A QCD IS EASY.
As you can’t make the distribution directly to a charity, your IRA administrator must transfer the money directly to UpReach. Contact your plan administrator and tell them you would like to make a charitable donation to UpReach from your IRA. They will send you a distribution form for you to fill out and return. If you or they have any questions about the process, you can call our Executive Director or Development Director at 603.497.2343.
At the end of the year, your IRA administrator will provide you with a Form 1099-R so you can report it on your taxes as a non-taxed QCD.
