Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust
(Gift example*)

Jeff, age 75, and his wife Susan, age 73, establish a Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust with a cash gift of $250,000. They select Yale as the trustee, and Yale distributes $12,500 to Jeff and Susan each year.

Jeff and Susan’s trust provides them income for their lifetimes, which could continue for the surviving spouse, or for a fixed term. Their trust benefits from expert asset management, with low administrative costs, under the direction of the Yale Investments Office. They also receive a federal income tax deduction of $102,827.50 in the year of the gift.

By creating a trust with Yale, Jeff and Susan receive excellent management of their assets and Yale receives a generous gift.
