RETIREMENT PLAN GIFTS
Assets accumulated in a retirement plan, such as an IRA, can be a source of funding for a charitable gift by naming Holy Cross of San Antonio as the beneficiary or contingent beneficiary of such plans. Tax benefits are based on IRS regulations at the time of the designation.
CHARITABLE LEAD TRUSTS
A charitable lead trust can be used to transfer assets to your heirs at a significantly reduced tax liability. The trust makes a fixed payment to Holy Cross for a specified term, measured either by someone's life or a selected number of years. After the trust term ends, the assets of the trust are either returned to you or passed on to children or other loved ones.
