Charitable Remainder Unitrusts
(Is this gift for you?)


A charitable remainder unitrust is for you if ...

  • You want to make a major gift to us while retaining or increasing your income from the assets you contribute
  • You hold appreciated assets -- securities, a business, or investment real estate -- and want to avoid the capital gains cost of a sale
  • You want the income from your gift to be able to grow over time
  • You desire maximum flexibility in the operation of your gift:
    • You want income paid to your beneficiary for a term of years instead of her lifetime
    • You want to pay more than one beneficiary
    • You want the option of choosing the trustees of your gift plan
    • You want to donate an appreciating but temporarily illiquid asset to us
