Ways to Give
Give Through Your IRA
Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) and IRA beneficiary gifts allow you to reduce taxable income while fueling CLARYN Foundation programs that keep families healthy and fed.
IRA Charitable Rollover
If you are 70½ or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution directly from your IRA to CLARYN Foundation. This gift option lowers the income and taxes from your required minimum distribution while making a big difference for Maryland families.
Transfers up to $108,000 can be made tax-free when sent directly to CLARYN Foundation. Your gift helps us continue delivering nutritious food, health access, and compassionate services to the neighbors who rely on us.
