    QCDs Beyond FAQs: A Deeper Look at the Charitable IRA Rollover

    Qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) from IRAs have taken off since their enabling legislation became permanent at the end of 2015. Also known as charitable IRA rollovers, the growth of these gifts highlights an increased familiarity with the general concept. Yet, as with many plans that seem simple and straightforward, with QCDs the devil is in the details.

    This webinar will touch on commonly known aspects of QCDs, why they appeal to donors, and approaches to take in marketing. It will then delve into important details of helping donors complete QCD gifts, traps gift planners and donors should avoid, and any new legislative developments.
