Charitable Remainder Trusts

An irrevocable transfer of an asset to a trustee you select. The trustee invests the assets and pays income for a lifetime or a term of twenty years or less. At the end of the term, the assets are transferred to the UO. There are two types:

Charitable Remainder Unitrust

  • Beneficiary receives a fixed percentage of the value of the trust every year.
  • Fair market value of trust revalued annually.
  • If value of trust increases or decreases, so does income.
  • A hedge against inflation.
  • Additions can be made to the trust.
  • Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust
    • Beneficiary receives a fixed dollar amount every year.
    • Amount based on percentage of the value of the trust at inception.
    • Additions cannot be made to the trust.
    • Tax deduction is higher for annuity trust than the unitrust.
