Now that all of us are over the age of 70 1/2, you may find that making your donation to the DCF as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA is an excellent way to make your donation dollars go further.

There are many other ways to make a contribution. See the Dartmouth College Fund site for more information.
