Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust
How It Works You transfer cash, securities, or other appreciated property into a trust. Our required minimum for this type of gift is $100,000. The trust makes fixed annual payments to you or to beneficiaries you name. When the trust terminates, the remainder passes to Cedar Crest College to be used as you have directed. Benefits Receive income for life or a term of years in return for your gift. Receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your contribution. Pay no up front capital gains tax on appreciated assets you donate. Your trust can meet personal or family needs that are tied to a specific time frame, such as tuition payments.
