Beneficiary Designations
An easy way to help New Jersey families living in poverty
In just a few minutes, you can make a lasting impact at Center for Food Action and it won’t affect your current budget. Simply name Center for Food Action as a beneficiary of one of your assets, such as the following:
IRAs or retirement plan
Life insurance policy
Commercial annuity
It only takes three steps to make this type of gift. Here’s how to name Center for Food Action as a beneficiary
Contact your retirement plan administrator, insurance company, bank or financial institution for a change-of-beneficiary form.

Return the completed form to your plan administrator, insurance company, bank or financial institution.
IRA Charitable Rollover
If you are 70½ years old or older, you can take advantage of a simple way to benefit Center for Food Action and receive tax benefits in return. You can give up to $100,000 from your IRA directly to a qualified charity such as ours without having to pay income taxes on the money. This popular gift option is commonly called the IRA charitable rollover, but you may also see it referred to as a qualified charitable distribution, or QCD for short.
This law has no expiration date so you are free to make annual gifts this year and well into the future.
Why Consider Giving an IRA Charitable Rollover?
Your gift will be put to use today, allowing you to see the difference you’re making to families facing hunger in New Jersey
You pay no income taxes on the gift. The transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction, so you benefit even if you do not itemize your deductions.
If you have not yet taken your required minimum distribution for the year, your IRA charitable rollover gift can satisfy all or part of that requirement.
