What is a Charitable Trust?



Depending on your estate, one of the various forms of charitable trusts – including the Charitable Lead Trust or CLT, and the Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) – may offer significant potential advantages; including the ability to transfer assets to heirs, reduce estate and capital gains taxes, retain the use of property, and support your favorite charity.

Please click to download and read these excellent articles on the Charitable Lead Trust or CLT, and the Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT).
