WAYS TO GIVE TO LIFELINE Monthly
Through IRAs
Lifeline invites you to consider becoming a monthly donor to help you and Lifeline in budget planning.
Making a gift from your IRA, known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), is a tax-free way to support Lifeline, even if you don’t itemize deductions on your tax return.
By making a monthly gift, you create a sustainable impact in the lives of more than 150 clients each year as they fight addiction. You will receive updates and a consolidated annual tax receipt. Your support provides a predictable revenue stream to assist Lifeline in strategic decisions to grow in excellence as an organization. It’s a flexible and convenient way for you to help restore lives and transform your community.

This option is available to those 70.5 years or older with a traditional IRA, inherited IRA, inactive Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) plan and inactive Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE) IRAs. A QCD is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA custodian directly to a qualified charity, such as Lifeline, a 501 (c)(3). We encourage you to speak with your financial advisor to see if this is appropriate for you in 2020 to help Lifeline clients find Christ-centered solutions to addiction.
