"I found them to be absolutely so reliable that I kept adding yearly to the number of gift annuities I have." Salvation Army Annuitant

The minimum to establish a gift annuity is $10,000. All beneficiaries must be 65 years of age when they begin to receive payments. A deferred annuity may be established beginning at age 45.

How a charitable gift annuity works

A charitable gift annuity is a way to make a gift to support The Salvation Army Eastern Territory.

  1. You transfer cash or property to The Salvation Army Eastern Territory.
  2. In exchange, we promise to pay fixed payments to you for life. The payment can be quite high depending on your age, and a portion of each payment may even be tax-free.
  3. You will receive a charitable income tax deduction for the gift portion of the annuity.
  4. You also receive satisfaction, knowing that you will be helping further our mission.

If you decide to fund your gift annuity with cash, a significant portion of the annuity payment will be tax-free. You may also make a gift of appreciated securities to fund a gift annuity and avoid a portion of the capital gains tax. Please contact us to inquire about other assets that you might be able to use to fund a charitable gift annuity.
