Give the gift that keeps giving long after you are gone. Individuals not have to be rich to leave a legacy of giving. They only need to define what matters to them, what creates passion within them. Deciding to make an ultimate gift (a gift made after death) offer all of us the chance to share who we are. It allows us to show our children and other surviving family members the importance of giving back. Finally, it gives joy and a sense of peace.

A charitable lead trust (CLT) is a gift of cash or other property to an irrevocable trust. Feed My People would receive an income stream from the trust for a term of years. Depending on how the trust is structured, you would enjoy a current income, gift, or estate tax deduction on the donated assets. After the income stream period ends, the remainder assets are distributed to the non-charitable beneficiaries. This gift is very good to make in the current economy as the lower the federal interest rate, the higher the income or gift tax deduction.
