Beneficiary Designations
Did you know that there are additional assets not covered in a standard will or trust? If you have an IRA, 401(k), life insurance policy, or any additional accounts, these are called 鈥渘on-probate assets鈥� and they need to be planned for separately.
Providing for Witt by naming us as beneficiary of an IRA or qualified retirement plan is generally considered the most tax-advantaged way to leave a gift. This is because Witt is not subject to the federal income tax or estate tax liabilities of noncharitable beneficiaries. Witt receives the full fair-market value of the funds to direct to our mission.
