In larger estates, retirement fund assets distributed to family members may be subject to double taxation — first through the donor’s estate tax and then through beneficiaries’ income tax. Individual Retirement Plan (IRA) accounts listing the Community Foundation as the beneficiary generally will pass to your Community Foundation fund free of estate and income taxes. Keogh plans, 401(k), 403(b) and other qualified pension plans are also eligible. If you are 70.5 years of age or older, you can make a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA via several different fund options.
Contribute an existing life insurance policy to the Community Foundation or establish a new one with the Community Foundation as beneficiary.
