Making a charitable gift annuity
This is a creative way to help you meet your financial and charitable goals while also helping the animals for years ahead.
When you make a charitable gift annuity, you can realize tax savings, secure your retirement by receiving reliable annual income, and support the future of Best Friends and the animals.
To set up a charitable gift annuity with Best Friends Animal Society, you may donate cash, appreciated securities, or funds from your IRA*.
In return, you receive an income tax deduction and a steady stream of income for life for you or someone you designate. This way of giving will also help you save on capital gains taxes for gifts of appreciated securities.
Charitable gift annuities are a worry-free way to give
This secure way of giving won’t be impacted by a fluctuating stock market or an unpredictable economy.
