Create a Charitable Legacy and Extend Your Giving for Years to Come.

Flexible Succession Planning

A successful plan involves defining your legacy, considering a life span for your philanthropy, and planning for transitions. Account succession plans typically call for the assets to be distributed to your favorite charities or for the account privileges to be passed on to others. However, you can elect to combine these options by assigning percentages of the account to each strategy. For example, you may want to distribute a portion of the account to create new accounts managed by your children and distribute the remaining funds to your designated charities.

What happens to an account when a donor-advisor is deceased?
Donor-advisors are encouraged to name successors and/or beneficiary organizations to their account to create a legacy of giving. Successors are individuals who will assume donor-advisor rights after the active donor-advisors are deceased. Charitable beneficiary organizations will receive the proceeds of an account after active donor-advisors are deceased.
 
If there is no successor or beneficiary named, T. Rowe Price Charitable will consider the account to be orphaned and follow these procedures:
  • If there is no granting history, then the balance of the account will be transferred to our General Giving Fund.
  • If there is a granting history, the first consideration will be to make grants that reflect the donor-advisor’s past giving history, and with respect to deceased advisors, making grant awards in memory of such donor-advisors.
  • If the previously supported organizations are no longer eligible, the balance of the fund will be transferred to our General Giving Fund.
Can I support charities after my lifetime?

You have two options for supporting charities beyond your lifetime:

  1. Name beneficiary charities to receive the remainder of account assets in a lump payment.
  2. Establish a charitable legacy plan to request an annual disbursement of account assets. You select one or more beneficiary organizations, the account duration time, and the annual distribution percentage. A $10,000 minimum account balance is required at the time of activation.
