Ways to Give

Bequest by Will

A charitable bequest is a gift made through your will or trust, such as money, securities, or property.

  • Flexible Options: Specify a dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or the remainder after other provisions.
  • Tax Benefits: Bequests may reduce estate taxes for your heirs.
  • Additional Considerations: Designate The Unumb Center as a beneficiary of retirement accounts like an IRA or 401(k).

Life Insurance

Life insurance policies offer creative ways to support The Unumb Center:

  • Donate an Existing Policy: Assign ownership or change the beneficiary to The Unumb Center.
  • Purchase a New Policy: Name The Unumb Center as the owner or beneficiary, and you may qualify for tax deductions.
  • Tax Advantages: Claim deductions for policy value, premiums, or dividends assigned to the charity.

Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) 

A CRT provides income to you or your beneficiaries while supporting The Unumb Center.

  • How It Works: Transfer assets to an irrevocable trust that pays income for a set term, with remaining assets going to charity.
  • Benefits: Enjoy retirement income, estate planning advantages, and potential tax savings.
  • Flexibility: Choose payment percentages (minimum 5%) and assets to contribute.

Charitable Lead Trust (CLT) 

A CLT allows you to make significant charitable contributions while providing for your heirs.

  • How It Works: Assets are transferred to a trust, which makes payments to The Unumb Center for a set term. Remaining assets are distributed to your beneficiaries.
  • Tax Benefits: Potentially reduce estate and gift taxes with deductions based on the trust’s charitable payments.
  • Options: Grantor CLTs provide immediate tax deductions, while non-grantor CLTs offer different tax advantages.
