Make Your IRA Charitable Rollover Gift
Did you know you can support the mission of the Church and reduce your taxes at the same time? If you are age 70½ or older, you can make a charitable gift directly from your IRA to a qualified charity—such as your parish, Catholic school, the Bishop’s Appeal, diocesan ministries, or the Catholic Foundation—without paying federal income tax on the amount given. This gift, called a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), is a simple and powerful way to live your faith and make an impact.

Thanks to those who left a legacy to support fine arts programs, so many students have been able to share Jesus through song, dance and more. What a beautiful reminder to keep the joy of our Savior's birth alive in our hearts all year long!
