Testamentary Life-Income Gifts
(Gift illustration)

How it works

You write a will or revocable trust directing a bequest to Caltech.

You provide that the bequest first create a life-income gift benefiting your heirs.

After their income interest terminates, the remaining balance in the gift passes to Caltech.

Benefits

• One estate asset can benefit both Caltech and your heirs.
• The resulting charitable estate-tax deduction will lower the cost of providing for children and family.
• Provisions are revocable during your lifetime, increasing your planning flexibility.
