Gift Planning - Annuities

A Simple Gift That Provides You, Or Others, With Income

A Charitable Gift Annuity represent the most commonly used gift that allows you to transfer assets to Webster University while continuing to receive income from those assets. Benefits to you might include:

  • A guaranteed fixed-rate lifetime income for one or two individuals,
  • Partially tax-free income for a number of years,
  • An immediate charitable deduction,
  • Reduction in capital gain tax,
  • Remove – wholly or partially – those assets from your taxable estate, and
  • Professional management of assets.

Annuities & Deferred Income
Charitable Gift Annuities can also defer income to a specific future date – or a date you later select. This election might include the following heightened benefits:

  • An increased charitable deduction,
  • An increased income once payments begin, and
  • An additional retirement-building tool for those already contributing the maximum tax-deferred amount to their existing retirement plan.
