Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA)

A charitable gift annuity is a simple agreement where you make a gift to charity and, in return, receive fixed payments for life. It's a way to support a cause you care about while securing steady, lifetime income.

Legacy Charitable Gift Annuity
(CGA funded by an IRA)

A charitable gift annuity funded by a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a new type of CGA agreement where you make a gift to charity and, in return, receive fixed payments for life. It's another way to support a cause you care about while securing steady, lifetime income.

Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT)

A charitable remainder trust lets you donate assets, receive income for life or a set term, and support a charity with what remains. It’s a flexible way to give while meeting personal financial goals.

Donor Advised Fund (DAF)

A donor-advised fund is a simple, flexible way to give to charity. You make a gift, receive an immediate tax benefit, and recommend grants to your favorite causes over time.

Endowment 

An endowment is a meaningful, lasting gift that keeps giving. Your original contribution is carefully invested, and the earnings provide steady, ongoing support for the cause you care about—year after year, generation after generation.

Revocable Cash Asset Trust (RCAT)

A Revocable Cash Asset Trust is a flexible way to set aside charitable funds—a true “gift in waiting.” Donors retain control and can revise, or initiate cancellation of their plan at any time. Meanwhile, their funds are securely held and allocated according to the donor’s direction, ready to support your favorite ministry when the time comes.

Deposit Account (IDA or FDA)

Deposit accounts are exclusively offered to institutions, specifically ministries and organizations affiliated with the Adventist Church.
