What is a Charitable Gift Annuity?

A charitable gift annuity is a way to make a gift to Audubon, and still receive an income for yourself or others. It is a contract under which Audubon, in return for a transfer of cash or securities, agrees to pay a fixed sum of money for a period measured by one or two lives. When you contribute an asset for the annuity you are called the "donor", and the person who receives payments is called the "annuitant" or "beneficiary." Usually, the annuitant is also the donor, but this is not always true.

Bequests - Your Lasting Legacy

When it's time to begin planning your estate, you think about the people and institutions that have played a role in your life.

You have supported Audubon during your lifetime. You believe in our mission and understand that we will continue to make a positive difference in the world far into the future.

How can you provide for our future support? By including a charitable bequest in your will or revocable trust.
