A 慈善先导信托 allows you to make an impact on the causes you care about today while also providing for your family later. With a 慈善先导信托, you transfer cash or assets to a trust that makes payments to the American Heart Association for a period of time. When the term ends, the remaining assets passes to the individual beneficiaries you select. There are two types of 慈善先导信托s.

A charitable lead annuity trust pays a fixed amount each year to the American Heart Association.

A 慈善带头诚信 pays a variable amount each year to the American Heart Association based on the value of the assets in the trust. 有一个非托拉斯, if the trust’s assets increase in value, the payments to the American Heart Association increase as well, 反之亦然.
