Charitable Gift Annuities
(Gift illustration)
How it works
 |
You transfer cash or securities to Berkeley. |
 |
Berkeley pays you, or up to two annuitants you name, a lifetime annuity. |
 |
The principal passes to Berkeley when the contract ends. |
Benefits
- You receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your gift.
- Your lifetime annuity is backed by a reserve and the full assets of Berkeley.
- Your annuity payments are treated as part ordinary income, part tax-free income, and part capital gains income for gifts of securities (15%).
- You have the satisfaction of making a significant gift that benefits you now and Berkeley later.
