Charitable Bequest
A charitable bequest is one of the easiest ways you can leave a lasting impact. A bequest may be made in your will or trust directing a specific gift.
Benefits of a Bequest:
- Receive estate tax charitable deductions.
- Lessen the burden of taxes on your family.
- Leave a lasting legacy.
*Please contact your CPA or Tax Advisor for individual guidance.
Bequest Options:
- Gift a percentage of your estate.
- Gift a specific dollar amount of assets.
- Gift from the balance or residue of your estate.
- Bequest of retirement assets through designation of beneficiaries to part or all of your retirement accounts leaving a tax free donation to the charity. Primary and/or contingent beneficiary designation may be selected. To establish a directed giving account, complete the account worksheet and submit. A Financial Advisor from Chapin Davis will phone you upon receipt of your submission to guide you through the steps. (Worksheet coming soon)
