"The federal government requires that I take a distribution from my IRA at age 70-1/2 and allows that the taxes be waived if the funds are donated to a nonprofit organization. I have taken this opportunity to donate this distribution to St. Joseph's College in gratitude for the education that I received. My wish is that these funds will provide scholarships to other needy students."
