How It Works

Naming md传媒国产剧 College as a full, partial, or contingent beneficiary of a retirement plan (such as an IRA, a 401(k), a 403(b) or a private pension), is a simple way to make a planned gift to BC. Additionally, because retirement plans are subject to income taxes in the hands of individual heirs, directing all or some of such plans to a charitable organization such as BC, which is not obligated to pay income taxes, is highly tax efficient and insures that BC benefits from the full amount of your gift.

You can also name BC as a full, partial, or contingent beneficiary of a life insurance policy. This option offers flexibility; you can change the percentage anytime should your circumstances change. The process is simple and can be handled through your plan鈥檚 administrator.

  • Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
  • Bank accounts
