New Estate Tax Law Effective Jan. 1, 2010
It's an extraordinarily uncertain time—tax wise, that is. This is the first year in decades that American tax law repealed the federal estate tax. As of Jan. 1, 2010, federal estate taxes are repealed for any deaths that occur during this calendar year, regardless of the size of that person's estate (state estate/inheritance taxes will still apply).

The Westminster Retirement Communities Foundation enhances the lives of people living in our communities by administering gifts and bequests so that generous donors will always know that their gifts will be used in the manner they direct.

Founded in 1970 in support of a single Westminster community, the Foundation today, through the generosity of our residents and their estates, assists people in our communities statewide who have outlived their financial resources.

Through its Benevolent Assistance Endowment Program, the Foundation stands ready to provide confidential assistance to people in our communities whose financial resources have become depleted due to extenuating circumstances and through no fault of their own.

"As always, we urge you to review your charitable and investment decisions with your financial, tax or legal advisor."
