Thinking about Gifting your IRA or Legacy Gifting?

*Making a gift to United Path Ministries directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a smart and impactful way to support our mission. This method, known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), offers significant financial advantages.

• Tax-Free Donation: You may be able to transfer up to $100,000 annually from your IRA directly to United Path Ministries (or another qualified charity) without having to pay federal income tax on that money.
• Satisfy Your RMD: The amount donated counts toward satisfying your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) for the year, helping you meet this annual obligation tax-free.
• Support Our Mission: Your gift directly helps further United Path Ministries’ mission to provide hope, help, and compassion to those in need.

Donating is simple. You must arrange the transfer directly with your IRA administrator.

1. Contact Your Administrator: Reach out to your IRA plan administrator (the financial institution that holds your IRA) and inform them you want to make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) to United Path Ministries.
2. Provide Our Information: Share the following essential details with your administrator to ensure the donation is processed correctly:
