Annuities

Deferred Gift Annuity

A Deferred Gift Annuity can be a wonderful investment option for a younger donor still in high-earnings years, while still saving for retirement and trying to lower taxable income. A deferred charitable gift annuity provides fixed payments to you and/or another beneficiary for life in exchange for your gift of cash or securities. The payments start one year after the start date of your gift.

Charitable Lead Trust (CLT)

A Charitable Lead Trust (CLT) is a gift of cash or other property to an irrevocable trust. Josh McDowell Ministry receives an income stream from the trust for a term of years. Depending on how the trust is structured, the donor enjoys a current income, gift, or estate tax deduction on the donated assets.

Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (CRAT)

A Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (CRAT) is a separately invested and managed charitable trust that pays you, and/or other beneficiaries, a fixed annuity for life or for a term of years (up to 20). You receive a charitable income tax deduction for a portion of the value of the assets you place in the trust.

Charitable Remainder Unitrust (CRUT)

A Charitable Remainder Unitrust (CRUT) is a tax-exempt irrevocable trust designed to reduce the taxable income of individuals by first dispersing income to the beneficiaries of the trust for a specified period of time, and then donating the remainder of the trust to the designated charity.

Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)

A Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) is a direct transfer of funds from your IRA custodian directly to a qualified charity, like Josh McDowell Ministry. QCDs can be counted towards your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year, if certain rules are met.
