  8. Four “Win” Test Did you know that with one gift you can … • Make a major gift to support Rotary Foundation programs • Receive immediate tax benefits • Reduce capital gains tax on gifts of appreciated property • Receive lifetime income for you or others

  9. Life Income Agreement • A Life Income Agreement enables donors to receive income for life from their charitable gift. • Types of Life Income Agreements available through TRF: • Charitable Gift Annuity • Deferred Charitable Gift Annuity • Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust • Charitable Remainder Unitrust • Lead Trust • Pooled Income Fund

  10. Charitable Gift Annuity A donor makes a gift in cash or publicly traded securities and in return receives regular payments for life that never change in size or frequency, regardless of changes in the economy.

  11. Deferred Charitable Gift Annuity Just like Charitable Gift Annuities, but: • Payments are postponed for a specified period of time, which is at least one year after the date of the gift. • Size of payment depends on the amount transferred, income beneficiary’s age, and the length of deferral.

  12. Charitable Remainder Trust • A trust into which a donor irrevocably places assets in exchange for an income, either for life or a term of years. • The trust will pay income at an agreed upon rate minimally 5% of the initial principal. • Two types of Charitable Remainder Trusts: • Unitrust – Income fluctuates annually with the fair market value of the trust. • Annuity trust – Income payments are fixed and determined when the gift is made.

  13. Illustrations Planned Giving staff can prepare a Life Income Agreement benefits illustration for you

  14. Donor Advised Funds Establishing a DAF is like having a private foundation without the hassles and paperwork that go along with operating one. • Group account (From two to four account-holders, expected to last in perpetuity) • Individual account (One account-holder and a spouse, possibility of transferring account-holder status to child or children, remainder to charity)

  15. Named Funds • $25,000 – establishes Named Fund to provide general support for The Rotary Foundation’s programs • $50,000 – endowment for scholarships or matching grants • $150,000 – restricted endowment, a project within a program of your choice

IRA Roll-over Option • Individuals who are 70 ½ at the time of the gift may annually donate up to $100,000 from their Individual Retirement Account (IRA) directly to The Rotary Foundation • This gift can be made without increasing federal gross income for that tax year • Available from now until 31 December 2007 only
