How it Works

• You transfer your residence, farm, or vacation home to the ACLU Foundation subject to a life estate.
• You continue to live in the property for life or a specified term of years, and continue to be responsible for all taxes and upkeep.
• The property passes to the ACLU Foundation when your life estate ends.

Benefits

• You can give us a significant asset, but retain the security of using it for the rest of your life. 
• You receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of the appraised value of your property.
• You can terminate your life estate at any time and may receive an additional income tax deduction.
