IRA Gifts

Make the most of your IRA

You may reduce your taxable income by making a Qualified Charitable Distribution from your IRA to support PBS. If you wish for your gift to qualify as a part of your Required Minimum Distribution, please ensure it is made payable to PBS (Tax ID: 52-0899215). The PBS Foundation is a 501(c)3, 509(a)3, Type I supporting organization to PBS.

QCDs made to supporting organizations will not be counted toward your Required Minimum Distribution.

To ensure proper acknowledgement with tax receipt, please notify us of your forthcoming QCD. These arrive directly from your financial institution and may not include your name or address.
