Charitable Lead Trust

A Charitable Lead Trust may meet your needs if you have a large taxable estate and wish to pass on a greater inheritance to your children and grandchildren, while also providing MPF with immediate and sustained support. Typically, a Charitable Lead Trust pays a specified income to MPF for either a fixed term of years or for your lifetime while your heirs receive the balance of the trust at the time of your death.

Please consult with MPF in advance of your decision so that we can make sure your intentions are fully met. We would be happy to talk with you about how to leave a prairie conservation legacy for future generations. Please contact MPF Executive Director Carol Davit at the Missouri Prairie Foundation at (573) 356-7828 or info@moprairie.org. 

The Missouri Prairie Foundation does not offer legal, tax, or financial advice. Please consult your attorney, accountant, or financial advisor for assistance.
