Giving

If you would like to make a donation to Church of the Redeemer, either a one time gift or a year long financial commitment, we encourage you to do so electronically. Electronic giving offers parishioners an easy and consistent way to make their annual commitment payments. It also benefits Church of the Redeemer with a more regular income throughout the year and reduces processing costs overall. Our online system is secure and with any of these electronic payment methods, you can increase, decrease, or cancel your payments at any time. If you have any questions, or need help implementing one of the options below, contact Debbi Alsfelder, Finance Officer at 513.321.6700.

IRA Charitable Rollover

Normally, a distribution from a traditional IRA incurs taxes since the account holder didn’t pay taxes on the money when they put it into the IRA. But account holders aged 70½ or older who make a contribution directly from a traditional IRA to a qualified charity can donate up to $100,000 without it being considered a taxable distribution. The deduction effectively lowers the donor’s adjusted gross income (AGI).

To avoid paying taxes on the donation, the donor must follow the IRS rules for qualified charitable distributions (QCDs)—aka, IRA charitable rollovers. Refer to your financial institution’s Qualified Charitable Distribution Form (QCD) or contact Debbi Alsfelder for more information.
