You may choose to give a percentage of your estate, or all or part of what remains after all other bequests are made. Specific sums and other property are also welcome. The methods of giving listed below range from near to long term and offer multiple levels of support.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"question-answer","qa":[{"question":"IRA Rollovers","answer":" A Tax-Smart Way to Support All Classical Radio! The IRA Charitable Rollover can provide you with an excellent opportunity to make a gift during your lifetime from an asset that would be subject to several levels of taxation if it remained in your taxable estate. Under the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 \u2013 now with no expiration date \u2013 donors over the age of 70\u00bd can distribute up to $100,000 in a calendar year from an IRA to All Classical Radio or other charities, tax-free. This distribution to charity can be a significant benefit for IRA owners who are required each year to take minimum required distributions, which are included in their gross income for income tax purposes.<\/p>"},{"question":"Gift of Securities","answer":" There are distinct income tax advantages of giving securities over cash, and the benefits are twofold: you will receive a deduction for the fair market value of the stock (up to 30% of your adjusted gross income), and capital gains taxes do not apply. Charitable gifts of appreciated securities make sense now more than ever.<\/p>"},{"question":"Bequest","answer":" A provision in a will for All Classical Radio allows for a substantial contribution without diminishing assets during one\u2019s lifetime. Naming All Classical Public Media, Inc. (tax exempt ID 93-1042868) in your will or Living Trust is an easy way to make a timeless gift. You may choose to leave a specific amount of cash, securities, or other assets; a percentage of your total estate; or the residual assets after other commitments have been fulfilled. Since bequests for All Classical Radio are deductible from the estate, significant tax savings are possible.<\/p>"},{"question":"Retirement Assets","answer":" Making a gift of a qualified retirement plan asset such as a 401(K), 403(b), IRA, Keogh or pension plan is another way to benefit All Classical Radio and receive significant tax savings. Retirement plan assets are fully taxable when received by an individual beneficiary. Designating All Classical Radio as the beneficiary of a retirement account such as 401k, 403(b), IRA and other retirement accounts causes the charitable gift to be deductible for income tax or estate tax purposes.<\/p>"},{"question":"Life Insurance","answer":" Donors can use life insurance to make a gift to All Classical Radio by naming All Classical Radio as the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy. A donor receives a charitable income tax deduction based on the lesser of the policy's fair market value or the net premiums paid. Donors may also wish to make gifts of paid-up policies, resulting in a charitable income tax deduction for the policy's cash surrender value.<\/p>"},{"question":"Life Income Gifts","answer":" Split-interest charitable gifts provide you and loved ones with a secure income stream for your lifetime or for a specific number of years, an income tax deduction in the year of the gift, and other tax benefits.<\/p>\r\n \r\n An Irrevocable trust that generates a potential income stream for you or your beneficiates, with the remainder of the donated assets eventually going to one or more designated nonprofit organizations. A portion of the trust qualifies for an income tax deduction. This option is great for multiple charitable beneficiaries. It allows for the donor to change the named beneficiaries and change start\/stop time frame. <\/p>\r\n\r\n A charitable gift annuity is a contract with a nonprofit organization, in which you provide a gift, usually in cash or marketable securities, and in exchange the nonprofit guarantees you income for life. The advised minimum is $25,000. Charitable gift annuities are considered on a case by case basis.<\/p>\r\n"}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"single-column","single_column":" If you have a question that is not answered on this page, or would like to discuss your ideas or plans for making a Legacy Gift to All Classical Radio, please contact Allison Fuller using this form<\/a> or by calling 503-802-9412.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"question-answer","qa":[{"question":"What is a will?","answer":" A legal document in which a person states who should receive his or her possessions after he or she dies.<\/p>"},{"question":"Do I really need a will?","answer":" Yes. Every adult can and should leave instructions as to what will become of his or her property. In the absence of these instructions, state laws take over and your property may be distributed to distant relatives, or, if none are found, possibly to the state itself.<\/p>"},{"question":"What if I already have a will?","answer":" Your will may be just fine as it is, but many people find that changes in circumstances may affect their plans. Marriages, births, deaths, divorces and other changes, such as moving to another state, are all good reasons for reviewing your plans. If you would like to leave part of your legacy to worthy causes and institutions, including All Classical Portland, this may be the time to take action.<\/p>"},{"question":"Is my will private?","answer":" Unless you choose to share it, it will remain private. Wills generally become part of the public record available from the court after death. Trusts, on the other hand, can remain confidential.<\/p>\r\n\r\n If you choose to remember All Classical Radio in your plans, we welcome your letting us know so we may say \u201cthank you!\u201d If you prefer, we will keep the fact of your bequest intention confidential.

And, if you have particular items that you would like to go to certain individuals, your will can help. Regardless of the size of your estate, you can benefit by taking the time to see an attorney and having a simple will drafted.<\/p>"},{"question":"What is a trust?","answer":" A relationship between parties in which one, the trustee or fiduciary, has the power to manage property, and the other, the beneficiary, has the privilege of receiving the benefits from that property.<\/p>"},{"question":"What is a Living Trust?","answer":" A trust that becomes effective during the lifetime of the settlor \u2014called also inter vivos trust.<\/em><\/p>\r\n There are two types of Living Trusts:<\/p>\r\n We are often able to accept gifts of Real Estate, but each situation must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
