Qualified Charitable Distributions (IRA)
If you are 70 1/2 or older, you may contribute up to $100,000 (per person) from your IRA directly to Stuart Congregational Church. Qualified Charitable Distributions can be used to satisfy your required minimum distribution amount and excludes that amount from your gross income on your federal tax return.
Distributions must be disbursed before midnight December 31 to qualify. As always, please consult your tax advisor about the best way to support SCC in your situation or contact your financial advisor for more information.
Please note: IRA administrators frequently do not include the donor’s name on IRA distribution checks. Therefore, please alert the SCC Treasurer of the amount so that we may identify and promptly acknowledge your gift.
“As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”

If you’ve got a stockpile of canned and non-perishable food items that you’d like to donate to a good cause, bring them by on the first Sunday of the month. We collect canned goods every first Sunday and make arrangements to deliver them to local food pantries, including The Salvation Army, House of Hope, and Elev8Hope.
