Charitable Lead Trust
Lead trusts are funded with cash, securities or other assets. Fixed or variable amounts are distributed to charitable organizations for a designated number of years. The trust donor determines the period of time. The remaining assets in the trust are returned to the donor or donor’s heirs upon completion of the term.
Benefits Include:
- Ability to provide a stream of income to benefit a charity or charities for a set number of years.
