Gifts of Life Insurance - Paid-Up Policy

Lifetime Insurance Diagram

How It Works

  • You transfer ownership of a paid-up life insurance policy to Yale.
  • Yale cashes in the policy now or maintains it and receives the death benefit later.

Benefits

  • You receive gift credit and an immediate income tax deduction for the cash surrender value of the policy.
  • In some cases, you can use the cash value in your policy to fund a life income gift, such as a deferred gift annuity.
  • You gain the satisfaction of making a significant gift to Yale without adversely affecting your cash flow.
