Charitable Gift Annuity
Are you tired of living life at the mercy of an ever-changing stock or real estate market? A charitable gift annuity can provide you with stability and peace of mind. When you make a gift through the Foundation to the charitable gift annuity, you gain a secure source of fixed payments for life.
Benefits of a Charitable Gift Annuity
- Receive fixed payments to you or another annuitant you designate for life
- Receive a charitable income tax deduction for the charitable gift portion of the annuity
- Benefit from payments that may be partially tax-free
- Extend and empower Kingdom work
How a Charitable Gift Annuity works
A charitable gift annuity is a way to make a gift that supports a Baptist ministry (or ministries). The process of gifting typically follows this model:
- You transfer cash or property to Georgia Baptist Foundation.
- In exchange, we promise to pay you fixed payments for life. Depending on your age, these payments can be comparatively high. A portion of each payment may even be tax-free.
- You will receive a charitable income tax deduction for the gift portion of the annuity.
- We believe you will also be blessed with joy by being an integral part of helping further local and global missions.
If you decide to fund your gift annuity with cash, a significant portion of the annuity payment will be tax-free. By making a gift of appreciated securities to fund a charitable gift annuity, you can avoid a portion of capital gains tax.
