Charitable Trust

How Charitable Trusts can work for you:

  • You can establish a lead trust that will make income payments to Las Olas Chabad Jewish Center for a pre-determined number of years.
  • After the trust term ends, the assets are distributed to you or your family.
  • This is an outstanding way to give charity today, eventually leaving the asset to your heirs.
  • Appreciated real estate is often an excellent asset to place in a charitable trust.

Retained Life Estate

A Retained Life Estate is a strategy that allows you to donate a home to Las Olas Chabad Jewish Center while retaining the right to live in it for the rest of your life.

  • You deed your home to Las Olas Chabad Center, but retain the right to live there for the rest of your life.
  • You continue to live on your property for as long as you want and are responsible for the expenses: maintenance fees, insurance, property taxes, repairs, etc.
  • When you pass, the property is transferred to Las Olas Chabad Jewish Center.
  • You are able to receive a substantial tax deduction.
  • You benefit by knowing your property or vacation home will ensure a Jewish legacy.
