Charitable Gift Annuity
A charitable gift annuity is a simple agreement between you and St. Joseph’s Hospitals Foundation. In exchange for a gift of cash or appreciated assets, you receive fixed payments for life.
How It Works
- You transfer cash or securities to St. Joseph’s Hospitals Foundation. Our minimum gift requirement is $25,000.
- St. Joseph’s Hospitals Foundation pays you, yourself and a spouse, or any two beneficiaries you name, fixed payments for life.
- Beneficiaries are recommended to be at least 65 years of age at the time of the gift.
- The remaining balance passes to St. Joseph’s Hospitals Foundation when the contract ends.
- You can also create a life income gift through your IRA. Discover more here.
