Gift Annuities
Transfer cash or appreciated property to BGCHs and receive fixed income payments for life, receive an immediate charitable deduction and avoid capital gains tax on the sale of appreciated property. A gift annuity is available through Boys & Girls Clubs of America and requires a minimum gift of $10,000. You must be at least 60 years old.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
Transfer appreciated property to an irrevocable trust and receive an immediate charitable tax deduction, avoid current capital gains taxes on long-term appreciated property and regular payments throughout your life. Upon death remaining assets in the trust transfer to charity.
Charitable Lead Trusts
Transfer appreciated property to your family for the future through an irrevocable charitable trust. You designate the trust to exist for a specific number of years or until death. The charity receives an annual contribution and at the end of the term or death, the assets will pass on to family or friends as beneficiaries. Careful planning makes it possible to reduce – or eliminate- taxes normally due to the transfer of wealth to loved ones.
