Charitable Lead Trust

Did you know your estate can be taxed to your heirs?

A Charitable Lead Trust enables you to preserve a portion of your estate and pass assets tax-free to your heirs.

This arrangement provides income to the AACR Foundation for a specified number of years, after which the trust property typically passes to the donor’s heirs. Income-producing assets that are expected to gain in value such as stock or real estate are irrevocably transferred to a trust. The AACR Foundation receives income from the trust for the specified number of years, after which the property in the trust is transferred to the heirs without the imposition of any additional taxes.
