Income for Today, Hope for Tomorrow

Eyeglasses Donation

A Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA) with Operation Blessing and Orphan’s Promise is a gift that gives back. It can provide you and/or another beneficiary with a fixed income for life. You may also receive an immediate income tax deduction when you fund the CGA. 

Through your CGA, you can help provide clean water, disaster relief, hunger relief, medical care, child development,  and other life-changing aid to people in need around the world. Many families and children are still fighting to survive each day—without safe water to drink, enough food to eat, or the care they desperately need. But your gift can bring hope and transform  their lives and communities for God’s glory. 

Benefits

  • You receive a fixed income for life.
  • Part of the income is tax-free for a number of years specified when the annuity is established. 
  • You may qualify for a federal and possible state income tax charitable deduction the year your annuity is established.
  • If funded with appreciated securities, you may avoid capital gains tax. 
  • You can defer the payments from 1 to 20 years—such as when you reach retirement—but get a tax deduction the year you establish the annuity. 
  • You can trust that your donation to Operation Blessing or Orphan’s Promise will continue to change lives by spreading the Gospel of Jesus and providing critical humanitarian aid to children and families across the globe. 

How Does It Work?

  • A minimum gift of $10,000 is required to establish CGA in most states.
  • Payment may be made to a maximum of two (2) beneficiaries.
  • You can begin receiving payments immediately (if you are 55 or older) or defer payments for a year or more. The older you are when your payments begin, the higher your rate.
  • CGAs may be funded with cash, stock, and other types of assets.

Additional Information

Deferred charitable gift annuity (for payments to being at a future date) : If you’re not yet ready to receive payments, you can opt for a deferred gift annuity. With this option, you can establish a gift annuity now and receive a charitable income tax deduction this  year. However, you can defer the payments until a specified future date. The benefit of choosing this option is that your annual payment will be higher when the payments start than it would have been with a current gift annuity.
