We appreciate your support of our work. Maybe you are not able to make a gift right now but would like to help our organization in the future. The way to make a future gift is through a bequest made in your will or trust.

Benefiting from Giving Through a Gift Annuity

Jim retired last year, but when the stock market dropped, he lost part of the value in his investments. Because he didn’t have much more time to save, Jim needed to find a secure source of future income quickly.

Luckily, his friend Carl told him about the Gift Annuity he had with his favorite charity. By transferring some of his stock into a Gift Annuity, Carl was able to secure a fixed income for life with payments at a rate based on his age. Jim liked this idea, especially the fact that some of the income Carl received was tax-free. So, Jim contacted his favorite charity to set up his own Gift Annuity, and in a short time he was also receiving secure income that will continue for the rest of his life.

Gift of Cash or Property

Would You Like to Save on Your Taxes?

For a gift of cash, you will receive a charitable deduction for the full cash value. If you make a property (real estate or stock) gift to us, you avoid any tax that would otherwise be due upon sale. We then sell your property tax-free and you enjoy the benefits of a charitable tax deduction.

When you make your gift of cash or appreciated property to our organization, we promise to pay you fixed payments for life (with rates based on your age). You will receive a charitable deduction for the value of your gift and a portion of your payments could be tax-free!
