Wills & Living Trusts
Trusts & wills are another option for planned giving. Your assets are not tied up now yet you may rest assured that they will benefit our military families in the future.
Annuities
A deferred annuity is an insurance investment used to give the holder a supplemental source of retirement income. It is possible to donate an annuity to a charity. Doing so requires adjusting either the owner or the beneficiary of the annuity. The insurance company issues the contract. The owner/holder receives payments during his/her lifetime and takes the tax liabilities. The beneficiaries receive the cash value upon the death of the annuitant. Donating the annuity may be attractive for tax or estate planning purposes.
Retirement Plans
You might be looking for ways to donate your retirement assets to Military Assistance Mission on a tax-free basis. There are some limitations that apply to donating these types of assets to charity,
not only to the type that can be gifted, but also to the individuals who are eligible and the type of charity to which the donation can be made.
