NOTE TO SENIORS
If you are over age 72 and have a traditional retirement account (e.g. 401K, IRA) you are required to make annual taxable distributions to yourself, however if you are in the fortunate position of not needing all of your distribution for living expenses and are charitably inclined, you can avoid income tax on a portion of your RMD by donating that portion directly to a qualified charity-- Saint Joseph Catholic Community is a qualified charity.
