Macomb County Habitat For Humanity | Plan Your Estate

Plan Your Estate

Since 1994, Macomb County Habitat for Humanity has been building houses for families in need. You can help us continue in the years ahead by including Macomb County Habitat for Humanity, Inc. in your will or estate plans. Without lifting a hammer, you could help build a home for a family that would house them for a generation or more. There are many options for you to make a meaningful gift to support our Christian organization after your lifetime:

Gift Annuity:

In return for your gift, you or one or two annuitants will receive a fixed sum each year for life.
Deferred Gift Annuity:

In exchange for your contribution, you or one or two annuitants will receive a fixed sum each year for life beginning at the date of your first payout.

Your unitrust pays a fixed percentage of its value, determined each year to you or others for life or a term of years. The remaining assets will go to charity.
Charitable Reminder Annuity Trust:

Your trust pays a fixed dollar amount each year to you or others named for life or a set term of years.
Pooled Income Fund:

Your gift is pooled in a fund with gifts from other donors. You or others named will receive your share of the income the fund earns each year for life. Your gift's share then goes to charity.
Retained Life Estate:

You deed your home or farm to charity, but retain the right to live in it for the rest of your life, a set term of years, or a combination of the two.
Charitable Lead Unitrust:

Your unitrust pays a fixed percentage of its value, determined each year, to charity for a term of years or one or more lifetimes. The accumulated assets then go back to you or others named.

If you're at a point in life where you are planning your estate, we suggest you contact a certified financial planner or a tax attorney for a consultation to properly provide for all you wish to remember with a gift.
