QCD-Funded Gift Annuity

You may be looking for a way to help further our mission and enhance your income. If you are 70½ or older, you can make a one-time QCD rollover to fund a charitable gift annuity and receive fixed payments for life.

Benefits of an QCD-Funded Gift Annuity

  • Reduce your taxes with a one-time transfer of up to $55,000 from your QCD to a gift annuity
  • Receive lifetime fixed payments for you and, if you choose, for your spouse
  • Potentially reduce your required minimum distribution (RMD) this year
  • Help further the work and mission of the National Academy of Sciences

How an QCD-Funded Gift Annuity works

  1. Contact us about creating an QCD-Funded Gift Annuity with the National Academy of Sciences.
  2. Contact your QCD plan administrator to make a one-time qualified charitable distribution (QCD) of up to $55,000 from your QCD to the National Academy of Sciences.
  3. We will use your QCD gift to fund your gift annuity payments.
  4. Please note that QCD gifts do not qualify for a charitable deduction.
  5. After you receive payments for life, there will be a future gift to us.
  6. Please contact us if you wish your future gift to be used for a specific purpose.
