Did you know there’s a way to support the causes you care about while being mindful of your taxes?

For individuals age 70½ and older, a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) allows you to give directly from your IRA to a qualified 501(c)(3) charity without paying federal income tax on the amount donated. For many retirees, a QCD may also satisfy part or all of their Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). In 2026, individuals may give up to $111,000 annually through a QCD, with the limit indexed for inflation.

It’s one of several strategies that can make charitable giving both meaningful and financially thoughtful.

Our partners at Covenant Trust Company are available to help you explore how charitable planning may align with your overall financial goals. More information is available at https://bit.ly/3Q9B9MR.

Residents often share that supporting Benevolent Care reflects what community truly means to them.

Supporting Benevolent Care is important to us because this is home — a community we care deeply about.

We believe in residents supporting residents and in ensuring that compassion and dignity remain at the heart of daily life. Benevolent Care exists quietly, offering reassurance that neighbors will continue to be supported, even during life’s unexpected moments.

For us, giving is about legacy. It’s about helping preserve the sense of security, belonging, and connection that makes this community such a special place to call home. https://bit.ly/482ZgDD

For Esperanza Villalobos, Director of Housekeeping at Covenant Living at the Samarkand, giving back is personal.

She not only supports the Benevolent Care Fund herself - she inspires her entire Facilities Management Team to do the same, raising $3,000 this year for the residents they care for every day.

"I want to give back a little bit of what the residents give to me and my team. They put their trust in us and make us part of their family. It's an honor to help them live with digninty and peace of mind."
