If this economy has you looking for good news, we have some for you. A growing number of Aggies are learning about the benefits of a charitable gift annuity because of all the advantages it brings. In a world of economic ups and downs, the gift annuity is a stable and predictable way to receive significant financial benefits through charitable giving.

When you fund a charitable gift annuity, you receive payments from us for the rest of your life.* The good news is that the payment amount never changes no matter what the economy does. The rates are based on your age at funding, and your payments could be as high as 9 percent.

Those who have already created charitable gift annuities appreciate the dependability of the payments, and they value the security of knowing their payments are backed by all of our assets. 

The benefits of a gift annuity don’t stop with lifetime payments. You will receive an income tax deduction for making the gift to us. You could also receive a portion of your payment tax-free. After your lifetime, the remainder of your gift goes to support Texas A&M. 

 

*Gift annuity payments are based on your age and are guaranteed for life.
