How to make a gift of retirement assets
To leave your retirement assets to Foundation for Physical Therapy Research, you will need to complete a beneficiary designation form provided by your retirement plan custodian. If you designate Foundation for Physical Therapy Research as beneficiary, we will benefit from the full value of your gift because your retirement assets will not be taxed at your death. Your estate will benefit from an estate tax charitable deduction for the gift.
Future gifts from your retirement assets
Did you know that 40%-60% of your retirement assets may be taxed if you leave them to your heirs at your death? Another option is to leave your heirs assets that receive a step up in basis, such as real estate and stock, and give the retirement assets to Foundation for Physical Therapy Research. As a charity, we are not taxed upon receiving an IRA or other retirement plan assets. You can use the "Make a Future Gift of Retirement Assets" tool to contact your retirement plan custodian and designate a future gift to Foundation for Physical Therapy Research.
