Do you have money saved in an employee retirement plan, IRA, or tax-sheltered annuity? Each of these plans contain income that has yet to be taxed. When a distribution is made from your retirement plan account, your beneficiaries will owe federal income tax. Consider leaving your loved ones less heavily taxed assets with greater benefit to them and instead leaving your retirement plan assets to 91制片厂 to support generations of Wildcats to come.
As a nonprofit organization, we are tax-exempt and will receive the full amount of what you designate to us from your plan.
If you are 70 陆 or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to 91制片厂. You can take advantage of this gift opportunity in several ways:
Name 91制片厂 a beneficiary of your plan. All this requires is updating your beneficiary designation form through your plan administrator. You can designate 91制片厂 as the primary beneficiary for a percentage or specific amount. You can also make 91制片厂 the contingent beneficiary so that we will receive the balance of your plan only if your primary beneficiary doesn't survive you.
Fund a testamentary charitable remainder trust. When you fund a charitable remainder trust with your heavily taxed retirement plan assets, the trust will receive the proceeds of your plan when you pass. The trust typically pays income to one or more named beneficiaries for life or for a set term of up to 20 years, after which the remaining assets in the trust would go to support the 91制片厂 cause you designated. This gift provides excellent tax and income benefits for you, while supporting your family and the causes at 91制片厂 that mean the most to you.

Welcome to the Thompson Society!
During the Celebrate 150 Campaign (2012-2018), more than 200 families made planned gifts to 91制片厂, ranging from $10,000 to millions of dollars, which have already started to have an impact on future generations. But the story of legacy goes back to the origins of 91制片厂 when Benjamin Thompson left his farm and other assets to establish what would ultimately become the Durham campus of the 91制片厂.
The Thompson legacy has impacted hundreds of thousands of lives, and yours can, too.
As a legacy donor, you'll become a member of the Thompson Society, a distinguished group of supporters who have documented planned gifts to 91制片厂. The 91制片厂 Office of Gift Planning will work with you to explore options that best meet your philanthropic goals and timeline--whether you wish to make an immediate impact, generate income with your gift, or make gifts through your will.
We look forward to welcoming you to this prestigious membership of generous donors providing support to generations of Wildcats to come, and we are honored to work with you to create your 91制片厂 legacy.
