If you are 70½ or older and have an IRA, you are already qualified!
How a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) Works
You are at least 70½ years old with IRA funds you no longer need
Make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) from your IRA
Your QCD goes directly to Jesus Film Project, helping spread the gospel to people around the world.
*If you are 73 years old or older, your QCD can count towards your required minimum distribution (RMD)!
Did You Know?
You can also support our mission for years to come. Simply name Jesus Film Project as a beneficiary of your IRA account, and the remaining assets (or a portion) of the account will be distributed to help us transform lives.
Sample Beneficiary Designation
Legal name: Jesus Film Project®, A Cru Ministry
Address: 100 Lake Hart Dr. Dept. 3100, Orlando, FL 32832 USA
Federal Tax ID number: 95-6006173
Discover the Benefits of a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
Reduce Your Taxable Income
When you take funds from your IRA, they count as taxable income. But if you transfer them directly to Jesus Film Project, you reduce your taxable income while satisfying your RMD.
Fulfill Your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD)
After you turn 73, you must distribute funds from your IRA. If you do not distribute the required minimum, you may be penalized, but a QCD allows a transfer up to $108,000 per individual or $216,000 per couple to satisfy your RMD.
Transform the World
When you make a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA to Jesus Film Project, you will help us change the world for future generations.
“I was invited to a Jesus Film Project® briefing where I learned much more about the ministry, its many strategies and met the leadership. Their priority clearly was and is to promote the kingdom of God. They are self-sacrificing servants helping to reach the world. That was very affirming for me.”
—Milly, QCD Donor
