Estate Plans

- Charitable Trusts can be established. They can be funded with cash, securities, or other assets. The donor or other designated beneficiary receives income for the life of the trust, and the donor receives a charitable deduction for the value of the assets that will pass to the charity when the trust terminates.
- Annuities can be setup to provide fixed income for the donor’s life. Part of the income will be tax free to the donor. A charitable deduction can be claimed for the portion that represents a charitable gift.
- Appreciated securities can be donated and a tax deduction can be taken for fair market value of the donated security.
- IRAs and retirement plan accounts can name a charity as a beneficiary
