Income for You, Support for the the Missouri Botanical Garden
Would you like to support the the Missouri Botanical Garden but are hesitant to do so because of the current market uncertainties?
Perhaps you are concerned about being able to meet your future needs. Other donors who feel the same way have discovered the joy of supporting the Garden through a CGA.
A CGA is a contract between you and the Garden that provides advantages for both. By funding a charitable gift annuity, you will receive fixed payments for your lifetime, as well as a charitable income tax deduction, and will ultimately be providing valuable support to the the Missouri Botanical Garden.
CGAs may be funded with cash or securities. The payout rate on a charitable gift annuity is a fixed rate based on the age of the annuitant(s) at the time the gift is made. Payments may be made to one or two annuitants for their lifetime(s). This gift type is especially appealing right now because rates increased as of July 1, 2022 so your payments are higher as a result.
CGA benefits include:
- Guaranteed fixed payments for life.
- A portion of your payments may be tax-free.
- A charitable income tax deduction and reduced capital gains taxes with gifts of appreciated securities.
- New increased rates, mean a higher payout for you!
