A gift to Seattle Rep that pays you back
A charitable gift annuity at Seattle Rep provides a fixed income for life (with rates based on age) in exchange for a gift of cash or stock. Gift annuities can be established to pay one or two people throughout their lifetime, which make them especially attractive arrangements for many individuals or married couples who seek additional income. Plus, donors receive an immediate income tax deduction in the year that the gift is made. After you pass away, the remainder of your gift annuity will be applied to the purpose you have chosen at Seattle Rep. Due to the simple contractual nature of this gift, a charitable gift annuity is one of the easiest life income gift plans to create.
