Charitable Gift Annuity Rates

In this Section

Glossary

The American Council on Gift Annuities (ACGA) has recommended gift annuity rate schedules since 1927. When a charitable gift annuity is funded, the age-appropriate rate from the schedule determines an annual amount paid to the income beneficiary that never changes and is guaranteed by Clarkson for the life of the annuitant(s). Most charities, including Clarkson, voluntarily adopt ACGA rate schedules to eliminate competition and ensure that gift annuities remain charitable vehicles that offer an income tax deduction.

The ACGA board of directors approved the current rate schedule in November 2011. Click here for a review of the rates and the assumptions behind the ACGA rate schedule.

The charts below list payout rates for 1-life and 2-life immediate payment gift annuities. Deferred payment gift annuity rates are dependent on the age(s) of the beneficiary(ies) and the length of the deferral period (at least one year). You may calculate a deferred gift annuity rate on our gift-with-income calculator.
