Personalized advice to secure your legacy

Are you looking for a way to support charitable causes you care about while also managing your estate and preserving your wealth?

Without a well-structured plan, your charitable giving can be complicated and less effective, potentially affecting your estate and financial goals. Direct donations may not offer the long-term impact or financial advantages you’re seeking, and without proper planning, your estate may face higher taxes, reducing the legacy you leave behind. This lack of strategy can result in missed opportunities to make a lasting difference while optimizing your financial benefits.

Our Charitable Trusts offer a strategic approach to philanthropy, allowing you to support the causes you care about while enjoying significant tax benefits and safeguarding your assets. By establishing a charitable trust, you can create a legacy of giving that aligns with your values and provides financial advantages for your estate. Trust Guru’s expertise in charitable trust planning ensures that your generosity is maximized, and your estate is managed effectively to leave a lasting impact.

How Our Charitable Trusts Process Works

01

Consultation and Philanthropic Planning

We begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your charitable goals, financial situation, and estate planning objectives. Our team listens to your vision for giving, identifying the causes and organizations you wish to support. This comprehensive assessment allows us to recommend the most suitable type of charitable trust—whether it’s a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) or Charitable Lead Trust (CLT)—and create a strategy that aligns with your values and financial needs.

02

Trust Design and Drafting

Based on the consultation, we design a customized charitable trust that meets your specific goals. Our team drafts the trust document with precision, incorporating provisions that outline the terms of giving, income distributions, and the eventual transfer of assets to the charity and beneficiaries. We ensure that the trust is structured to maximize both the philanthropic impact and the financial benefits, including tax deductions and estate planning advantages. This detailed approach ensures that your trust is legally compliant and effective in achieving your objectives.

03

Review, Finalization, and Funding

Once the trust document is drafted, we review it with you to ensure it accurately reflects your philanthropic vision and estate planning goals. We make any necessary adjustments and, upon your approval, finalize the trust. Our team then guides you through the process of funding the trust, transferring assets such as cash, securities, or real estate into the trust to activate its benefits. This step ensures that your ch

04

Our team provides continuous support to adapt the trust to any changes in your charitable goals or financial situation, ensuring that your trust remains aligned with your vision for impactful giving.

How Does a Charitable Trust Benefit My Estate?

Strategic Giving – Support Causes While Reducing Taxes

A charitable trust offers dual benefits: it allows you to support meaningful causes and provides significant tax advantages. By contributing to a charitable trust, you can receive immediate income tax deductions, reduce estate taxes, and manage capital gains taxes on appreciated assets. This strategic approach ensures that your philanthropic goals are met while also preserving more of your estate for your beneficiaries, creating a win-win situation for your legacy and financial planning.
