Charitable gift annuities

A charitable gift annuity is an easy way to make a significant future gift to Dominican University in exchange for an income for life. You make a gift of cash or marketable securities to Dominican University, and in return the university promises to pay you (or someone else named by you) a fixed percentage of the value of your gift for life. Tax benefits accrue at the time you make your gift and also when payments are made to you. The minimum gift is $25,000 for each annuity you establish, and the minimum age of the annuitant (the person receiving the income) is 65. The annuity rate paid depends on the age and number of annuitants.
