Ways to Give

Give Through Your IRA

If you are 70½ or older, you can support Life Choices Pregnancy Center/7B Care Clinic through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA. A QCD allows you to give directly from your retirement account to our ministry, and your gift may count toward your Required Minimum Distribution while potentially lowering your taxable income.

​

This type of giving is simple, secure, and sent directly from your IRA custodian on your behalf. Most custodians—such as Schwab, Fidelity, or Vanguard—can process a QCD with a short request. Donors often appreciate that QCDs offer meaningful tax advantages while making an immediate impact on the services we provide to families in our community.

​

To help you get started, we’ve included step-by-step instructions and a sample letter you can send to your IRA custodian.
