Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust

A charitable remainder annuity trust can be funded with cash or other assets. The trust provides you with fixed income and tax benefits and supports the work of EverTrue with the remainder.

Are you looking for a way to receive fixed income for life or a number of years? Are you concerned about the high cost of capital gains tax with the sale of an appreciated asset? Perhaps you recently sold property and are looking for a way to save on taxes and plan for retirement. A charitable remainder annuity trust may offer the solutions you need.

How a charitable remainder annuity trust works

  1. You transfer cash or assets to fund a charitable remainder annuity trust.
  2. In the case of a trust funded with appreciated assets, the trust will then sell the assets tax-free.
  3. The trust is invested to pay fixed income to you or any other trust beneficiaries you select based on a life, lives or a term of up to 20 years.
  4. You receive an income tax deduction in the year you transfer assets to the trust.
  5. Our organization benefits from what remains in the trust after all the trust payments have been made.
