When a Gift Annuity For Your Church
Makes Sense
You already realize that a gift annuity pays you
income for your lifetime before becoming a gift to
your parish, but when does it make sense for you to
buy one?
A gift annuity may make sense when:
Interest rates on CD’s slip below five
percent, and you still need dependable
income.
Dividend yields fall while living expenses
rise.
Stock market craziness makes you anxious
about your nest egg.
You need a tax deduction now and increased
retirement income in the future.
You wish to qualify for a Legacy Society,
but don’t want to see a lawyer.
You are approaching retirement and want to
re-allocate your investment portfolio toward
more fixed income.
You’ve celebrated another birthday and so
now rate a higher annuity payout.
You want to make a gift of income but not
principal to loved one, now or in the future.
If any of these fact-sets apply to you, you may
want to consider the purchase of charitable gift
annuity. A gift annuity pays you a fixed lifetime
income and provides you with an income tax
deduction while eventually benefiting your
church.
For a free brochure or to find out your payout
rate, contact Richard Schaper, Diocesan Gift
Planning Officer, at (415) 969-7812, or
RichardS@diocal.org, or by clicking on “Create
Your Plan” at www.EpiscopalGift.org.
A gift annuity is both a gift and an annuity-- the gift
is for the church, the annuity is for you.
