Gift-Replacement Life Insurance Gift Illustration
How it works
 |
You create a gift plan like a Charitable Gift Annuity or a Unitrust that will pay you income for your lifetime. |
 |
You also create a life insurance policy, naming your children or other heirs as beneficiaries. The amount of the death benefit equals the contribution you made to create your life-income gift. |
 |
You pay the premiums for the policy from the income you are receiving from your life-income gift. |
 |
At your death, Defenders of Wildlife receives the remaining balance of your gift plan and your heirs receive cash in the amount of your original gift. |

Benefits
- You make a significant gift to Defenders of Wildlife with no negative effect on your familyâ ¬!"s financial security.
- After your gift, your estate is replenished for the benefit of your heirs.
- No new assets are required to pay for this replacement: tax-savings from the charitable deduction plus income you receive from your new gift plan pay the premiums.
- Donors with large families or children who will need long-term assistance can consider helping Defenders of Wildlife at a level they never thought possible.
- One asset can do the work of two: make a gift to Defenders of Wildlife, and provide an equal benefit to your heirs.
