How Your IRA Can Help Children Thrive This Season 

If you’re 70½ or older, your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) can do more than support your future—it can change someone else’s. By making a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) to GO Campaign, you can support life changing programs for children worldwide while also receiving valuable tax benefits. 

As the year comes to a close, it’s a perfect time to give directly from your IRA and be part of GO Campaign’s #35ToThrive Challenge. 

Why Give Through a QCD 

  1. Reduce your taxable income 
    A QCD allows you to donate up to $100,000 directly from your IRA to a qualified nonprofit like GO Campaign without counting that amount as taxable income. This can lower your overall tax bill and help you meet your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). 

  1. Make an immediate impact 
    Your QCD goes directly to GO Campaign, helping to fund urgent needs and ongoing programs around the world. From access to education and clean water to trauma counseling and job training, your gift helps children thrive in tangible, lasting ways. 

  1. Give with simplicity 
    Giving through your IRA is straightforward. Simply contact your IRA administrator and request that a distribution be sent directly to GO Campaign. Many custodians can even complete this process online. 

How Your IRA Gift Powers #35ToThrive 

Every $35 you give helps a child move from surviving to thriving. And for a limited time, every donation to the #35ToThrive Challenge is being matched, doubling your impact and reaching twice as many children in need.
