Giving to the EOU Foundation

Charitable Remainder Trusts

Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRT) allow you to give a substantial gift, earn income and gain significant tax benefits. A CRT is established with a gift(s) from a donor which is then placed in trust by the EOU Foundation and invested. The donor or other beneficiary then receives payments, either fixed or based on investment earnings, for life or a term of years. Afterwards the remaining assets are used by the EOU Foundation to support EOU according to the donor's wishes. CRTs are often used to establish new endowments in the donor's name.

Cash, stocks or appreciated real estate are excellent funding sources for charitable remainder trusts.
