How it works:
- You make a donation for an annuity (min. $10,000)
- You receive quarterly annuity payments at a rate much higher than other secure investments such as CDs and Treasury bonds
- Payments continue throughout your lifetime – and if applicable, your spouse’s as well
- Your income is fully guaranteed by a top-rated insurance company
- You receive major tax benefits
- A major portion of your annuity income is tax-free
