Living Trust

A living trust lets you provide for yourself and your family before and after your death. It has built-in flexibility that can work very well with your overall estate plans, because it allows you to stay in control of your assets.

You can arrange for a contribution to the Clan Strachan Society through a living trust by naming us as the one of your beneficiaries. This method of giving is attractive because you still have complete control of the assets during your lifetime.

Benefits of a living trust to you include:

  • You or a beneficiary receive the income from the trust assets
  • You're in charge, but a professional trustee does the detail work
  • You name who will ultimately receive the trust remainder
  • The trust assets bypass probate, so the terms are private

If you would like more information about making a gift to the Clan Strachan Society, please call us at +951-326-5355.
