Charitable Lead Trusts

A charitable lead trust provides an annual gift to NBCF for a set period of time or for the life of a family. After that time the trust is dissolved and all remaining assets are distributed to your heirs. You will have the satisfaction of making a significant contribution to NBCF now that reduces the taxes due on transfer to your heirs in the future. This type of planned giving begins when you irrevocably transfer assets to a charitable lead trust. Your financial or legal advisor can assist you through this process.

Charitable Remainder Trusts

A charitable remainder trust is created when you irrevocably transfer cash, securities or other appreciated assets to a trust, which pays income to you and/or other beneficiaries that you designate, for life or for a set term with a maximum of 20 years. After your lifetime, or when the trust ends, the remainder is given to NBCF.

Stocks Or Securities

Your charitable gift of long-term appreciated securities, such as stock, bonds, or mutual funds will make a difference at National Breast Cancer Foundation. Appreciated securities are investments that have increased in value since the original purchase date. You can claim a charitable tax deduction for the full, fair market value of the securities and pay no capital gains tax on the transfer. Do not sell the appreciated stock before making your donation. Even if you donate the proceeds from the sale, the IRS will impose capital gains tax on the sale and will eliminate the benefits of the donation. Publicly traded securities may be transferred electronically from a brokerage account to National Breast Cancer Foundation. Please contact NBCF before making your gift to ensure your donation is properly acknowledged and credited.
