How It Works

  2. Trustee invests and manages trust assets and makes payments to income beneficiaries you designate
  3. Remainder to Houghton for purposes you specify

Benefits

  • Payments to one or more beneficiaries that will vary annually with the value of the trust
  • Federal income-tax deduction for the charitable remainder value of your interest
  • No capital-gain tax when trust is established; property is sold by the trust
  • Trust remainder will provide generous support for Houghton
