Named Beneficiary
Selecting Asia Pacific Outreach as a beneficiary for your retirement account or life insurance policy offers a straightforward yet impactful means of backing our organization's life-changing endeavors, all without the need to revise your will or living trust. By designating APO as a beneficiary, your generous contribution bypasses the probate process, supporting our endeavors to provide crucial assistance far faster than awaiting disbursement of your estate.
Retirement Accounts
Some supporters choose to designate APO as a beneficiary for either the entirety or a designated portion of their Kiwisaver, Australian Super, IRA, 401(k), 403(b), or similar retirement accounts.
It's worth noting that recipients inheriting assets from retirement plans typically face significant income tax obligations, making such assets highly suitable for charitable bequests.
Ask your retirement plan administrator or financial institution for a change of beneficiary form. Please list us as:
-
Legal name: Asia Pacific Outreach Limited
-
Address: 85 Alpine Road, Kaukapakapa, Auckland, New Zealand, 0984
-
Registered Charity ID: CC62395
Charitable Trust
A charitable trust enables you to contribute to the life-saving efforts of Asia Pacific Outreach while also maintaining and securing the core assets for your family's future. You transfer cash, securities, or other assets to the trust, which is then managed by a trustee. This trustee invests the assets and makes annual payments, based on funds/interest generated by the trust, to the APO for a duration determined by you. Upon the trust's conclusion, the remaining funds are disbursed to either you or your beneficiaries. Charitable Trusts have a range of tax advantages while also allowing the bulk of any funds to remain in your or your familys control.
