A Charitable Remainder Trust is an arrangement where you make a gift to a special charitable trust, and you and/or loved ones will receive income for life, or, if you prefer, a specific period of time. When the trust ends, whatever is left (“remainder”) goes to the charity you’ve chosen.
CRTs can be funded with appreciated stock, real estate or other assets avoid or defer capital gains taxes when they are sold. You will receive a partial income tax deduction. There are many kinds of CRTs that can be customized to meet your needs. They can provide fixed income from the start, or can rise and fall as the value of the trust rises or falls. They can also be set up to provide little or no income right away, but much more income later on.
