Charitable Gift Annuities
A Charitable Gift Annuity is part charitable donation and part investment. By purchasing a CGA, a donor can both support the United States Navy Memorial and receive a guaranteed fixed income for life. Part of the income is tax free, and donors will be allowed a one-time charitable income deduction. A CGA offers a much higher rate of return than a bank savings account or certificate of deposit, in addition to the tax benefits. Sample rates are below:
One Annuitant with a $5,000 donation:
| Age |
Rate |
70 |
6.5% |
75 |
7.1% |
80 |
8.0% |
85 |
9.5% |
Married couple with a $5,000 donation:
| Age |
Rate |
70 / 70 |
5.9% |
75 / 75 |
6.3% |
80 / 80 |
6.9% |
85 / 85 |
7.9% |
Please keep in mind that the minimum amount of a CGA is $5,000 and that minimum age is 60.
Holders of CGAs will also join the Naval Heritage Fleet and have their names displayed in our Heritage Center.
