How It Works

• You transfer cash, securities, or other appreciated property into a trust. The required minimum for this type of gift is $100,000.
• The trust pays a percentage of the value of its principal, which is valued annually, to you or beneficiaries you name.
• You may use your real estate to fund a charitable remainder unitrust (CRUT), which may be structured to provide lifetime income for you and/or others, or income for a term of years.
• When the trust terminates, the remainder passes to Springbrook Foundation in support of their overall mission.

Benefits
