Charitable Lead Trust

If you want to make an impact now at CapRadio and also provide for your family later, consider setting up a charitable lead trust. You transfer cash or other assets to a trust that makes payments to CapRadio for a period of time. When the term is up, the remaining trust passes to your family or other beneficiaries you select.

There are two ways that charitable lead trusts make payments to CapRadio:

A charitable lead annuity trust pays a fixed amount each year to CapRadio and is more attractive when interest rates are low.

A charitable lead unitrust pays a variable amount each year to CapRadio based on the value of the assets in the trust. With a unitrust, if the trust's assets go up in value, for example, the payments to CapRadio go up as well.
