Other Ways to Give

A QCD is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA custodian, payable to Concert Singers of Cary (a qualified charity). QCDs can be counted toward satisfying your required minimum distributions (RMDs), for the year, as long as certain rules are met.

The upside to donating to Concert Singers of Cary directly from an IRA is you get to count that money toward your RMD, but because it’s not actually distributed to you, it won’t increase your adjusted gross income. When you keep your taxable income lower, this may reduce the impact to certain tax credits and deductions, including Social Security and Medicare.
