The Family Plan

BFS Dual Legacy Charities, Inc.

It's: A legacy for your family and a legacy for your favorite charity.

  • For the charity: Individuals donate to you without taking a dime away from their beneficiaries!
  • We're a pass-through charity. We don't keep any money. We don't collect any fees!
  • As a donor:
    • You can have some of your money invested/transferred into a product that gives multiple investment choices, or guaranteed options.
    • Then, you can withdraw 4% to 6% annually for the rest of your life.
    • And: You can give some, or all of that annual withdrawal to your favorite charity.
    • And… after giving all that money (year after year), when you die, your original investment is entirely restored as a death benefit to your beneficiaries!

    The Family Plan - Example:

    1. Person A invests/transfers $100,000
    2. Person A withdraws $5,000 (5%)
    3. Person A donates $2,000 to [Your Favorite Charity] and keeps $3,000 as income
    4. Person A repeats step 3 annually for the next 15 years (withdraws $75,000)
    5. Person A then dies...
    6. Person A’s death benefit is then restored to the greater of the account value, or the total investment ($100,000).
    7. Person A’s beneficiaries receive the death benefit.
