Donate Your IRA RMD Tax Free to Outdoor Life Leadership

Did you know you can support Outdoor Life Leadership tax-free by donating directly from your IRA?

​

If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)—also known as a direct contribution from an IRA to charity—and it counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).

​

This gift is not taxed and goes straight to empowering young men with survival, leadership, and career-building skills.

Why Give Through Your IRA?

  • Satisfy Your RMD: Your gift can fulfill part or all of your annual RMD.

  • Simple Process: Contact your IRA custodian and ask for a direct transfer to Outdoor Life Leadership.

  • Make a Bigger Impact: Your full gift goes toward empowering youth—not to taxes.
