Deferred Gift Annuity
How It Works
- You transfer cash or securities to Audubon.
- Beginning on a specified date in the future, Audubon begins payments to you, or up to two annuitants you name; the annuity payments are, fixed for life.
- The remaining balance passes to Audubon when the contract ends.
Note:
- You must be at least 65 to begin receiving payments.
- The minimum gift requirement is $10,000.
Benefits
- Deferral of payments permits a higher annuity rate and generates a larger charitable deduction.
- You can target your annuity payments to begin when you need them, such as retirement or when a grandchild needs help with tuition payments.
- The longer you defer payments, the higher the effective rate you will receive.
