Deferred Gift Annuity

As a younger donor still in high-earnings years, you are still saving for retirement and also trying to lower your taxable income.

This diagram represents how to make a gift of a deferred gift annuity - a gift that pays you income.

How It Works

  • You transfer cash or securities. Our minimum gift requirement is $20,000.
  • Beginning on a specified date in the future, you, or up to two annuitants you name began to receive fixed annuity payments for life.
  • Rivier University recommends that you are at least age 40 to fund the gift.
  • The remaining balance passes to Rivier University when the contract ends.

Benefits

  • Deferral of payments permits a higher annuity rate and generates a larger charitable deduction.
  • You can schedule your annuity payments to begin when you need extra cash flow, such as retirement years.
  • Payments are guaranteed and fixed, regardless of fluctuations in the market.
  • The longer you elect to defer payments, the higher your payment will be.
