Benefits of a QCD

  • Can help satisfy your required minimum distributions (RMDs) for the year, as long as certain rules are met
  • Avoid taxes on transfers of up to $105,000 from your IRA to WBUR
  • Make a gift that is not subject to the deduction limits on charitable gifts
  • Help further the work and mission of WBUR

How a QCD gift works

  1. Contact your IRA plan administrator to make a gift from your IRA to WBUR. A sample letter to your plan administrator is included here
  2. Your IRA funds will be directly transferred to WBUR.
  3. Please note that IRA QCD gifts do not qualify for a charitable deduction.
