Imagine a way to turn your retirement savings into a lasting legacy that brings health and hope to communities worldwide. With a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), those aged 70½ or older can give directly from their IRA to The Rotary Foundation—satisfying required minimum distributions while sidestepping extra income taxes. This means your gift goes farther, supporting life-changing projects instead of slipping away to taxes.

Your QCD helps fuel Rotary’s epic mission: ending polio once and for all, delivering clean water, empowering learners, and creating peace in places that need it most. Every dollar given is a step toward a world where no child fears polio and every community can thrive. With the Gates matching 2/1 for Polio, they end up having 200% of the impact.

If you’re ready to make a difference in this powerful way, reach out for personal guidance. Email Lee Hollingsworth, Major Gifts Officer, at lee@leehollingsworth.com, and take the next step in your giving journey with Rotary.
