Bequest by Will
You can designate a gift or portion of your estate to Trinidad Community Foundation and, in some cases, receive a substantial reduction in federal gift and estate taxes. Please contact us so we ca help streamline the process fro you.
Life Insurance and 401k Beneficiary Designation
You can make Trinidad Community Foundation a full or partial beneficiary of your life insurance policy or retirement account. It's an easy way to make a legacy gift without modifying your estate plan. Upon your death, your gift is placed into the charitable fund of your choosing.
Appreciated securities and stocks
A gift of appreciated stocks or securities can realize significant tax advantages because the full market value of the stock can be taken as an income tax deduction at the time of the gift, and the appreciated amount is not taxed as a capital gain when the asset is transferred. Let our team help you give without the hassle of extra paperwork.
Bequests, Charitable Remainder Trusts and More!
A variety of strategic options are available and TCF will work closely with your accountant or financial adviser to create the best charitable fund program for you. Benefits can include a substantial tax deduction and other forms of reduced taxes, lifetime income or income for a set time, or appreciated assets passed on to your heirs at a low tax basis.
