You can help the Army take care of its own while earning an income from your gift.
Charitable Gift Annuities
Charitable Gift Annuities (CGAs) are a great way to make a lasting difference for active and retired Soldiers while receiving tax-favorable income for you, your spouse and your children. Many supporters like charitable gift annuities because of their attractive payout rates and their significant impact.
Benefits to you include:
- Payments can be made as you prefer on an annual, quarterly or monthly basis.
- A portion of the payout will be tax-free.
- You receive an immediate tax receipt for a portion of your gift.
- Your gift passes to Army Emergency Relief outside of the estate process.
- You create your legacy of helping Soldiers and their families in their time of need.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
Income for life for you and your family while reducing your taxes and supporting Army Emergency Relief.
By using assets or cash to fund the trust, you receive income and an income tax credit the year in which you transfer your assets. The remaining portion of the trust, after all payments have been made, comes to AER.
Benefits to you include:
- 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 giving Soldiers support during times of hardship.
