Giving
For where your treasure is,
there your heart will be also.
- Matthew 6:21
For where your treasure is,
Why we give.
God invites us to be generous as God is generous to us. Just as our triune God works in divine partnership, we are called to partner with one another. We are the church together!
Your faithful generosity through financial giving is what makes Malibu UMC’s ministry possible, not just today, but for the generations to come. Your gifts change lives.

Giving With IRAs: A Way to Be Generous
Are you an IRA owner and over 70½?
IRA owners who are 70-1/2 or older can make gifts to qualified charities from their IRAs of any amount, up to a maximum of $100,000 per year. Each year RHUMC members and friends choose to support the church’s mission in exactly this way.
Here are some helpful things to know:
• Qualified Charitable Distributions count toward the IRA owner’s required minimum distribution for the year.
• Any such gift is not included in taxable income. Since the IRA owner avoids paying tax on the distribution, there is no corresponding charitable deduction.
• IRA owners should review the rules with their tax advisors prior to year-end to determine if they can benefit and to make the best use of this powerful method to support charitable causes, either for 2016 or into the future.
