Year End Giving
- Plan Your Giving - 2026 Deadline Fast Approaching
  It’s almost the end of the year; have you made your plans for your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD)? Donating your RMD is a great way to reduce your taxable income while supporting a qualified charity like your parish, St. Lawrence Martyr.
  A Required Minimum Distribution is the minimum amount you must withdraw from IRAs and employer-sponsored retirement plans each year once you reach 73. The IRS uses a published Uniform Lifetime Table to determine your RMD each year.
  Unless you donate the funds to a qualified charity, they are added to your other income, and the combined amount is taxable, which could increase both your Federal and State tax bracket.
  If your plan manager or trustee transfers your RMD directly to a qualified charity like SLM, you can avoid taxes on your total contribution.
  In 2026, the maximum amount you can contribute and avoid any taxes is capped at $111,000.
  Transfer must be made by December 31, 2026
  We encourage you to consult a tax professional about your individual situation to determine the amount you may wish to donate from your RMD. Visit irs.gov for more information.
