If you desire to support God's work with a special gift, while increasing your income and reducing your taxes at the same time, a Charitable Gift Annuity with Amazing Facts will help you!
A Gift Annuity is a contract between you and Amazing Facts: In exchange for your gift of $10,000 or more to support our soul-winning ministry, we agree to pay you, and your spouse if desired, a guaranteed life income based on a percentage of your gift. The rate you receive is determined by your age when your annuity payments begin, ranging from 5.3% for a 50 year old to a generous 11.3% for those 90 years or older.
In most cases, a Gift Annuity pays a higher rate of return than most other secure investments, and the income is guaranteed for life! As an example, if you are 70 years old and establish a $25,000 gift annuity with Amazing Facts, you will earn 6.5% annually, paid to you either quarterly ($406.25) or monthly ($135.42), for as long as you live!
In addition to the life income, you also receive an immediate income-tax deduction for a portion of your gift, and much of your annuity income will be tax-free. But the most important benefit of establishing a Gift Annuity with Amazing Facts is the satisfaction of knowing that your gift will be put to work to reach souls with Christ's special message for these last days!

Charitable Remainder Unitrust
An alternative to making an outright gift of real estate or stock that has appreciated in value is using such assets to fund a life-income agreement, called a Charitable Remainder Unitrust. A Unitrust is specifically designed for those who own highly appreciated assets and who wish to eliminate the liability of capital gains tax. The benefits of a Charitable Remainder Unitrust include: 1) an immediate income-tax deduction, 2) a life-income based on an agreed percentage of your gift, and 3) the elimination of capital gains tax on assets transferred into the trust.
If you have been reluctant to sell stock or real estate that has increased in value because of the capital gains liability, you may wish to exchange those assets for a life income by transferring them into a Charitable Remainder Unitrust with Amazing Facts. When a non-cash asset is used to fund a Unitrust, Amazing Facts will sell the asset, pay no capital gains tax, and invest the entire sale proceeds to generate a life-income for you. This could mean an increase in earnings of 20% or more. But most important, your gift will be used in the evangelistic work of Amazing Facts.
