Donate to St. Mary’s Food Bank through a gift of stock or from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and help us continue our mission of Bridging the gap for Arizona communities with nourishment for today and hope for tomorrow.

IRA (QCD/RMD)

If you are 70 ½ years or older, you can donate to your charities of choice up to $105,000 directly from your taxable IRA. By doing this, you may avoid a higher income tax bracket and prevent phasing out of other tax deductions. There are some other limitations. Please consult a tax professional.

A QCD from your IRA will satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).

Required Minimum Distributions when you reach a certain age based on your birth year:

  • Before 1949: 70 1/2
  • 1949 or later, but not 1951–1958: 72
  • 1951–1958: 73
  • 1960 or later: 75

Contact your financial institution to initiate your OCD/RMD. Your institution can send your RMD through a QCD via check or wire.
