Mental illness does not discriminate based on socio-economic status, race, gender, or any other personal or social characteristics. The national statistics on mental health are true here in our own backyard:

      • One in five adults faces mental health challenges.
      • One in every ten adults struggles with substance abuse.
      • Stigma and finances are the main barriers to treatment.

Do you know you can make a tax-free gift of your RMD to a charity?

If you are at least age 70 ½, and have an IRA, the IRS requires that you begin taking a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). You have the option to use these funds to support FSG with a tax-free qualified charitable distribution up to $100,000 each year.  Your distribution must be made directly to FSG, it will count toward your RMD and will not be included in your annual income.  Check with your tax preparer if you have questions.
