Charitable Remainder Trusts

A Charitable Remainder Trust distributes income to a donor or other beneficiaries for their lives or a specified term of years (a maximum of 20 years), with the balance of the trust assets available for USF's use at the end of the trust.

Charitable Remainder Trusts offer many opportunities to address specific goals and situations for donors. For example, a Charitable Remainder Trust established for a term of years can assist in funding the costs of attending USF. Also, Charitable Remainder Trusts are frequently used as a means of providing supplemental income during retirement, and can be especially attractive as a way to convert appreciated, low-yielding assets into a high-yielding diversified portfolio without incurring capital gains tax. A donor to a Charitable Remainder Trust receives a partial charitable deduction equal to the value of the charitable remainder interest.
