IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
An IRA QCD allows individuals aged 70½ or older to donate up to $108,000 per year directly from their traditional IRA to a qualified nonprofit like the EFCA—without counting the donation as taxable income. This can be a tax-efficient way to satisfy Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) while supporting ministry. To make a QCD gift, instruct your IRA custodian to send the donation directly to EFCA.
