How it works
 |
You transfer cash or securities to the Pooled Income Fund trust established by the MU Foundation. |
 |
The trust issues you units, like a mutual fund, and pays you, or up to two income beneficiaries you name, the annual income attributable to your units for life. |
 |
The principal attributed to your units passes to the MU Foundation when the last income beneficiary dies. |
Benefits
- You receive gift credit and an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your gift to the trust.
- You pay no capital gains tax on any appreciated assets you donate.
- Although modest, the income usually exceeds the level of stock dividends.
- You can have the satisfaction of making a gift that benefits you now and the MU Foundation later.
