Donation Opportunities
Community business directory
If you’d like to grow your business while supporting Bet Shalom, advertise on our website.
We’ve launched a Community Business Directory on the Bet Shalom website, connecting members who are business owners and /or service providers with the congregation.
Tax Donation
If you are age 70-1/2 or older and have an IRA, you can donate from your IRA to Bet Shalom or to the Bet Shalom Endowment. This is called a “Qualified Charitable Distribution” or “QCD” and is a tax-free transfer from your IRA to a qualified charity such as Bet Shalom or the Bet Shalom Endowment. A QCD is not an itemized deduction, so it does not affect your itemized deductions or potential use of the standard deduction.
If you are age 73 or older and required to take a Required Minimum Distribution or “RMD” from your IRA, a QCD withdrawal can:
Satisfy your RMD requirement in whole or in part
Reduce your taxable income that would otherwise come from an RMD
Avoid income tax on the money that makes up the QCD withdrawal
The full amount of the QCD withdrawal would go to Bet Shalom or the Bet Shalom Endowment without taxation.
Please consult with your financial or tax advisor to see if a QCD makes sense for you. Many people with IRAs find that it is a tax efficient way to donate to charity. The company that administers your IRA can give you information on how to make a QCD from your IRA.
Please also consider naming Bet Shalom or the Bet Shalom Endowment as one of the beneficiaries of your IRA upon your death.
