The Deferred-Payment Gift Annuity

How Does It Work

  1. Transfer cash or other property to Sewanee

  2. Sewanee guarantees to make lifetime payments—for up to two annuitants—beginning at a future date of your choosing

Benefits

  • Guaranteed payments for life that are favorably taxed

    1. When gift is funded with cash, part of payment will be tax-free

    2. When gift is funded with appreciated property, part will be taxed as capital gain, part will be tax-free, and part will be taxed as ordinary income

  • Federal income-tax deduction for a portion of your gift

  • Gift will provide generous support for Sewanee
