Giving Through Your IRA

Qualified Charitable Distributions

Did you know you can support Village Health Partnership through your IRA?

It’s a tax smart way to make charitable donations.

Residents 70 ½ and older can support nonprofits using a special type of tax-free donation from their IRA. It’s called a Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD, and it’s one of the most powerful charitable giving tools available.

If you are 73 or older and required to take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from your IRA each year, a QCD can also help meet that requirement while reducing your taxable income.

This is a wonderful way for supporters to assist community-based efforts for safer motherhood in Ethiopia while also benefiting from meaningful tax advantages.

Making a QCD is easy:

  1. Contact your IRA custodian (Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, etc.)
  2. Ask them to issue a Qualified Charitable Distribution to the address and EIN below.
  3. The custodian sends the check directly to the nonprofit.

Address and EIN:

Village Health Partnership
1601 E. 19th Avenue, Suite #4450
Denver, CO  80218
EIN: 01-0967873

QCD & RMD Donation FAQs

What is a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)?

A QCD is a donation made directly from your IRA to a nonprofit organization. It is excluded from taxable income.

Who can make a QCD?

Anyone age 70½ or older, even if you are not yet required to take RMDs.

Does a QCD count toward my Required Minimum Distribution (RMD)?

Yes. If you are 73 or older, your QCD can satisfy part or all of your RMD for the year.

How much can I donate?

Up to $100,000 per year per individual (higher limits apply for married couples filing separately).

Do I get a tax deduction?

No deduction is needed—the donated amount is simply not taxed at all, which is often more advantageous.

Can I donate from a 401(k)?

Not directly. You would need to roll the funds into an IRA first.

Does the donation have to come directly from the IRA?

Yes. Your IRA custodian must issue the QCD check directly to the nonprofit.

Can a QCD be used to pay for tickets, classes, or anything with benefits?

No. QCDs must have no exchange of goods or services.
