A Gift That Pays You Back
If you’re looking for ways to support Western New England University and receive a steady stream of payments, a charitable gift annuity may be your answer. It is a simple contract between you and WNE. In exchange for a gift of $25,000 or more, WNE will provide guaranteed fixed payments to you for life.
Other benefits include the following:
- Generous annuity rates.
- Payments you receive are partially tax-free for a period of time.
- You receive a charitable deduction in the year of your gift.
- No tax on part of the capital gain if funded with an appreciated asset.
- You support WNE with a substantial gift.
