Support Redemption Ranch K9: Give a Second Chance to Shelter Dogs

At Redemption Ranch, we believe every dog deserves a second chance at life. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and train shelter dogs—many of whom were once abandoned or on death row—to become highly skilled police K9s. By donating, you help us continue this life-changing work and make a real difference in both the lives of dogs and the communities they go on to serve.

    Donate via IRA Account -Qualified Charitable Distribution

    Another way to donate is through your IRA account.

    If you have a traditional IRA and are age 70.5 or older, you can make a tax-free distribution from your IRA account to Redemption Ranch.  This is known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), where the custodian of the IRA account sends the donation directly to us.  An added tax benefit is that if you are age 73 or older, this Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) counts toward your annual Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). 

    Key Benefits:

    Reduce your taxable income - if you are 70.5 or older the QCD is excluded from your taxable income and if you are age 73 or older also counts towards your RMD.

    No itemizing is required - Even if you take the standard deduction, you still benefit.

    Support Redemption Ranch Directly - Your IRA custodian sends the gift directly to Redemption Ranch.

    Give up to $111,000 per individual per year - Individuals can donate up to $111,000 annually via QCD

    How to Start:

    Contact your IRA custodian and request a Qualified Charitable Distribution form.  Below is the information needed for the form:
