Charitable Gift Annuities
Charitable Gift Annuities (CGAs) are a great way to support The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals while generating income for yourself and your family. Learn how these gifts allow you to achieve both of these goals.
If you are 60 years old or older you can make a substantial impact through the ASPCA while you are receiving tax-favorable income for yourself, your spouse, and your children. Many supporters like charitable gift annuities because of their attractive payout rates and their significant impact.

70 | 5.9% |

Charitable Remainder Trusts
A charitable remaider trust is similar to a charitable gift annuity in that it produces payments to you for life while reducing your taxes and supporting the ASPCA. Unlike an annuity administered by the ASPCA, a trust is drafted by your attorney and managed by a trustee of your choice. By using assets or cash to fund the trust, you receive income and you receive a charitable deduction for the year in which you transfer your assets. The remaining portion of the trust, after all payments have been made, comes to The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Benefits to you include the following:
You receive income for life for you or your heirs.
You receive a charitable income tax credit for the charitable portion of the trust.
You create your legacy of advocating for stronger animal welfare laws and regulations.
