The Gift of Securities
Donating long-term appreciated securities offers two rewarding benefits. You can deduct the present market value of your gift; in addition, you will owe no tax on the appreciation in value. If you have securities on which you have a loss, you could sell them and then donate the proceeds to the Shubert. The benefit for you is that your loss deduction will offset any gains in sales, and of course, you'll enjoy the emotional rewards of your charitable donation.
Keep in mind, 30 percent of your adjusted gross income is the limit on deductibility in any tax year -- any excess is deductible over the next five years.
Bequests
The greatest numbers of planned gifts made to charities are in the form of charitable bequests, which transfers assets upon a donor's death by means of a will or a trust.
Life Income Plans
A gift through a charitable gift annuity or charitable remainder trust will provide income to you and benefit the Shubert Theater.
Charitable Lead Trust
A gift through a lead trust will provide income to the Shubert during your lifetime while eventually passing assets on to your heirs.
Life Insurance or Retirement Plan Bequest
By designating the Shubert as a beneficiary of a life insurance or retirement plan when making a charitable bequest may offer significant tax savings to your estate.
