Orcutt, President/CEO and also supplement your retirement plan or provide a predictable income stream to a dependent. Life income plans can help you support the University of Maine and focus on retirement planning issues. A life income plan may enable you to make a major gift for the future of the University of Maine. Thus, you can support a particular program, leave your own legacy, and help make a difference for future students and faculty. The concept of a life income plan is quite simple. You make an irrevocable gift now with cash or appreciated property, such as stocks or bonds, and you receive income from the gift for life. You can plan your gift to achieve many personal objectives such as converting highly appreciated, low-yield securities into an attractive income stream while possibly reducing taxation, supplementing your current retirement plan cash flow, or providing for a dependent relative in a tax-efficient way. To determine which life income plan might be best for you, talk with both your advisors and the planned giving staff at the University of Maine Foundation. Step One: Donate assets and take a charitable income tax deduction for your gift. You avoid or reduce the impact 1 UNIVERSITY*/ MAINE of capital gains taxes if you give highly appreciated stock.
