Did you know? Money from an IRA can be donated to charity. What’s more, if you’ve reached that age where you need to make required minimum distributions (RMDs), from your traditional IRAs, you can avoid paying taxes on the money by donating it to a 501(c)(3) such as the Friends of BERT. The donation must be by check so please click the U.S. Mail option above for RMD donations.
