Surrendering an Income Interest in a Life Income Gift (Including Partial Surrender)
Jeff Lydenberg - 2017/08/16By their nature, life income gifts (Charitable Gift Annuities, charitable remainder trusts, and pooled income funds) are arrangements where the donor transfers assets now, but delays the charity’s use of the funds until a future date, normally the death of one or more income beneficiaries. A charitable remainder trust can be established for a term of years, but until the expiration of what can be a term of up to twenty years, the assets of the trust are unavailable to charity.
