 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
