Your Charitable Contribution to MMRI Lab Research Can Change Countless Lives
Join the growing number of friends who invest now in the Institute’s future by including MMRI as a beneficiary of their wills, charitable trusts and retirement plans.
DONOR ADVISED FUND
Designate MMRI to receive all or a portion of the balance of your Donor Advised Fund through your fund administrator.
Wills and Living Trusts
Through a provision in your written and executed will or living trust, you can make a gift to MMRI in the form of cash, securities or real estate. Consult with your attorney to choose the one that best fits your needs and intentions.
Retirement Plans
Designate MMRI to receive a portion of your retirement fund.
Charitable Gift Annuities
Support MMRI and receive payments in your retirement years.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
You can take care of yourself and take care of MMRI by irrevocably transferring assets to a trustee that invests the trust’s assets and pays you and/or other beneficiaries variable annual payments for life and/or a term of years.
Real Estate
Like stock, the fair market value of gifts of appreciated assets can be deducted from your income tax today, allowing you to avoid capital gains and reduce estate taxes in the future. There is also a way to donate your home and live there as long as you’d like.
Life Insurance
Name MMRI as the beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy or donate an existing, paid-up life insurance policy you no longer need.
Stocks and Bonds
A charitable stock or bond plan can help you achieve your goals for tax savings and even provide additional income.
Qualified Charitable Distributions
If you are 70½ or above, you can donate part or all of your unused retirement assets to MMRI which may provide tax benefits.
