As a supporting organization of the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region, AEF is not eligible to receive a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from an IRA. Per our auditors, AEF is no longer able to accept a direct transfer from an IRA and treat it as a taxable withdrawal. AEF will only accept personal checks. To learn more or discuss other giving options, please call us: 920-832-1517.

AEF staff and board members are working on a solution that will allow us to accept QCD gifts in the future. When this happens, we will let you know. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your patience.
