CRUT lie in what the trust pays out on a yearly basis and whether additional contributions are permitted once the trust has been created. With a CRAT, the annuity amount paid each year is fixed. Once you establish a CRAT and make the initial contribution, no further contributions are allowed.

Any income that you receive from your charitable trust could reduce the total contribution that you end up leaving to your charity. You may risk leaving nothing to your charity if you plan to receive high payments from the trust while you're alive.
