If you are 70½ or older, you can make a charitable gift directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to the YMCA. This type of gift, known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), is a smart way to support your community while reducing your taxable income.

A QCD counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) but is not subject to federal income tax, making it one of the most tax-efficient ways to give.

Contact your IRA administrator to request a Qualified Charitable Distribution to the YMCA of Glendale.

Retirement Plan
