Specific Gift: Name Hinds Hospice to receive a specific gift of a certain dollar amount or a specific item of personal or real property. For example: Trust: “The Trustee shall distribute the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) from the trust estate to Hinds Hospice, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, located at 2490 W. Shaw Ave. Suite 101, Fresno, California 93711, Federal Tax Identification 770071360, for use in its general charitable purposes.” Will: “My Executor shall distribute the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) from my estate to Hinds Hospice, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, located at 2490 W.

For example: Trust: “Upon termination, the Trustee shall distribute Ten percent (10%) of the remaining income and principal of the trust to Hinds Hospice, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, located at 2490 W.

Shaw Ave. Suite 101, Fresno, California 93711, Federal Tax Identification 770071360, for use in its general charitable purposes.” Charitable remainder trust When your estate planning attorney creates your CRT, you transfer assets, real estate, or investments to the trustee of the CRT. When the transfer to the CRT happens, you can claim a charitable gift deduction for those assets. You can set up the CRT so that the assets continue to pay you, your spouse, even your children, income and/or principal from the CRT for a term of years or lifetime income, securing retirement income for you and your spouse. When the term ends, or you pass away, the assets, real estate or investment is distributed to Hinds Hospice. This is a great tool to help Hinds Hospice and receive recognition as a donor and tax benefits immediately, but still retain retirement income for you. Contact us today if you would like to learn more about CRTs and whether they might be a fit for you. Naming Hinds Hospice as a beneficiary of your life insurance or I.R.A.
