If you are age 70 1/2 or older can give any amount (up to a maximum of $100,000) per year from your IRA directly to a qualified charity like The Lost Church without having to pay income taxes on the money.

Some donors may also find that IRA Charitable Rollovers (aka QCDs) provide greater tax savings than cash donations for which charitable tax deductions are claimed. This is because adjusted gross income (AGI) is reduced. AGI is used in several key calculations, such as determining the taxable portion of Social Security benefits or what deductions and credits donors qualify for receiving. 

Save on your taxes and make a difference right here in your community.
