Giving & Donations
Lower your income tax when you donate
Do you have a retirement plan with an active Minimum Distribution Requirement (MDR)? These distributions are taxable when you take them out. BUT if a payment is made directly to a charitable organization like BHC for such things as dues or donations, you are not taxed on the withdrawal. So if you have not taken money out of your retirement plan in the prior year,, consider using those funds for your BHC dues or other contributions. If you have already taken this year’s deduction, wait until January for the next taxable year.
Donations may be made online or by check to: Bethlehem Hebrew Congregation, PO Box 395, Bethlehem NH 03574.
