NOTE: The following material is presented for general information only and should not be acted upon without qualified professional assistance.

Immediate Gifts
Cash, Credit Card, Automatic Bank Draft, Appreciated Property (i.e. stocks, bonds, art, etc.), Gifts-in-Kind, Life Insurance, Real Estate

Planned Giving or Deferred Gifts

Wills

A properly written will is an excellent way for a donor to remember Elder Care and make a significant contribution. This gift is for a designated amount, part of an estate or the entire residue of an estate given at the time of the donor’s death.

Living Trusts
A donor may, during his or her life, enter into a legal agreement or contract for the benefit of an organization such as Elder Care. The donor funds this trust with assets, but retains the right to terminate, cancel or revoke this trust.

IRA
A donor may name Elder Care as the beneficiary to all or a portion of his or her Retirement Assets. This allows the donor to avoid tax liabilities and to make a large gift with little costs.

Charitable Remainder Unitrusts
Created by the donor, this life-income plan irrevocably transfers assets to a trust, which pays the donor an annual income for life. The income is based on a fixed percentage, which is determined by the fair market value of the trust assets as revalued annually. Upon the death of the donor, the trust assets are transferred to Elder Care.

Charitable Remainder
Trusts This life-income plan irrevocably transfers assets to a trust, which pays the donor an annual fixed dollar amount for life. The donor also can provide income for another person. At the time of death the trust principal becomes the property of Elder Care.

Charitable
Lead Trusts With this plan, payments are made to Elder Care for a predetermined time, after which the trust corpus goes to a designated remainder beneficiary.

Gift Annuity
The donor transfers cash or other property to Elder Care and in exchange Elder Care pays the donor a specified amount annually, semi-annually or quarterly for the remainder of the donor’s life. This gift has tax advantages and is a way to make a gift and recieve an income for life.

Deferred Gift Annuity
The donor makes a charitable gift to Elder Care before retirement, and Elder Care agrees to pay a guaranteed life income, beginning when the donor retires or at any other date he or she specifies. This program is ideal for donors who would like to make a sizable charitable gift but are concerned about having sufficient retirement income.

Life Estate Agreement
Donors may contribute a personal home, a farm or other assets to Elder Care and retain the right to live in the home, or on the farm, and use the property to produce income. At death, the property goes directly to Elder Care without going through probate and taxation.
