A charitable gift annuity is a way to make a gift to support the causes that you care about. You make a gift of cash or property to Boys Town. In return, Boys Town will make payments for life to you, you and a loved one, or another person. Each payment will be fixed and the amount of each payment will depend on the age of the person who receives the payments. After all payments have been made, Boys Town will receive the remaining value of your gift to support our mission of saving children, healing families and strengthening communities.

There are a number of benefits with a charitable gift annuity. Your payments are fixed as of the date of your gift. This means that your payments will never change, even if interest rates or the stock market changes. Depending upon your gift, you may receive the added benefit of mostly tax-free payments. You will also receive a charitable deduction in the year that you setup the gift annuity selected.

If you are planning for retirement, a gift annuity can be a way for you to begin planning today and create security for your future.

• Payments can be made to you, or to you and your spouse, for as long as you live.
• You can defer beginning payments until your retirement date. You will still receive a charitable deduction for your gift this year.
• The payment start date can be flexible if you do not have a definite retirement date.
• You will receive fixed payments for life. The longer you wait before receiving payments, the larger the payments will be.
• Our organization benefits from what remains after all payments have been made to you.
