The HSSC welcomes and appreciates contributions of all kinds:  gifts of stocks and mutual funds, checks, bequests, and charitable remainder trusts, among others.  Recently, a new opportunity became available to donors over the age of 70 ½.  The Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) allows taxpayers to make IRA distributions payable directly to a qualified charity without treating the distribution as taxable income. This law permits up to $100,000 per eligible IRA owner to be contributed directly from their IRA to charity. In addition, the distribution can be used to fulfill the IRA owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for the year.  For the procedure to make a QCD from your IRA to the HSSC contact its custodian.
