6. Bequest A gift made upon your death as directed by your Will or Revocable Living Trust.

7. Charitable Remainder Trust
A Trust created by a donor that pays a fixed percentage for life or a period of years. At the end of that time frame, the assets remainder in the Trust goes to charity. Like a Gift Annuity, the donor gets a tax deduction at the time of the gift and annual payments for life. Unlike a Gift Annuity, the charity does not actually receive any funds until the termination of the Trust, since the Trust controls all assets in it.

8. Donating Appreciated Stock
Making a donation of an appreciated stock allows you to make a significant contribution, while avoiding paying a lump sum capital gains tax on your gains.  Current tax laws provide an incentive for you to make a charitable gift of stock in two key ways.  First, you pay no capital gains on the appreciated stock you are donating.  Second, you may take a charitable income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock on the date of transferring the stocks.

9. Double Tax Asset
Many people have retirement assets such as an IRA or a 401(k) plan at work. When money is withdrawn from these accounts, then the person will pay income tax. Many people do not realize that after they die, not only will your beneficiaries pay income tax on these accounts, but if your estate pays death tax, then these accounts will also pay death tax on top of the income tax. If these accounts are used for charitable gifts at your death, then both the income tax and the death tax are eliminated.
 
Thank you for your support! 100% of the proceeds go to 2x4 International Projects!
