Interested in making a gift and receiving income for life? A charitable gift annuity provides fixed payments to you (or up to two beneficiaries you select) for life - in exchange for your gift of cash or securities.


Eleanor Blayney describes leaving a legacy for hospice through the first Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA) to NHF

A charitable gift annuity may interest you, if you:

  • Want to maintain or increase your income
  • Want the security of fixed, dependable payments for life
  • Want to save income taxes or capital gains taxes
  • Would like income that may be partially tax-free
  • Are at least 70 years of age and are considering a gift amount of at least $10,000 (or establishing a deferred annuity and would like to receive the first payment at age 70)

How to Receive Income for Life with a CGA

  1. You make an irrevocable gift of cash, securities, or other property to the National Hospice   Foundation.
  2. In exchange, the National Hospice Foundation pays you a fixed amount each year for the rest of your life.
  3. When your gift annuity ends, its remaining principal passes to the National Hospice Foundation.
