Tax benefits and a high level of a steady, reliable stream of payments have long made charitable gift annuities a favorite giving vehicle. Gift annuity donors receive the security of a generous, regular, non-fluctuating stream of payments and an end to dramatic swings in the financial marketplace.

A charitable trust offers a way for donors to make a gift while retaining benefits for themselves or their families. Similar to other types of trusts, the exact terms are quite flexible, except the amount distributed at its termination (the remainder) is paid to a charitable beneficiary. Trusts such as these can offer unique income and estate tax benefits as well as providing a stream of payments to the beneficiaries.
