Retirement Assets, Life Insurance, and Real Estate - Alley Theatre
Skip to Content

Retirement Assets
Retirement account assets, if left to anyone other than a spouse, may be subject to very high taxation. However, by designating Alley Theatre as a recipient of any benefits remaining in the donor’s retirement plan, the donor may effectively reduce the taxes on those assets.

Current Giving Opportunity
Donors aged 70 ½ or older may contribute up to $100,000 to charity from their Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). Such contributions may also qualify as required minimum distributions.  For more details, please contact your financial planner.

Life Insurance
You may wish to make the Theatre the beneficiary of a policy.

Real Estate
The gift of your home is a unique and meaningful way to support Alley Theatre. You can enjoy the satisfaction of making such a gift during your lifetime—without affecting your current lifestyle—by a special arrangement called a retained life estate. Real estate can also be a valuable asset when used to fund either a charitable remainder trust or a charitable lead trust.
