A gift of life insurance is an inexpensive way to create a significant legacy at the MNjcc. A modest annual premium paid over time will result in a significant future donation.

Ways of gifting life insurance:

Donate an existing policy and receive a donation receipt for the net cash surrender value (less any outstanding policy loans) and any premiums paid (after the date of transfer of ownership to the MNjcc). A portion of the cash value is taxable but would be offset by the donation tax credit

Donate a new policy and receive a donation receipt for any premiums paid after the date of transfer of ownership to the MNjcc

Assign the MNjcc as the beneficiary of your policy, or the life insurance policy from your employer, and your estate will receive a donation receipt equal to the death benefit proceeds that the MNjcc receives

Benefits of making a gift of life insurance: 

• Receive a donation receipt
• A cost-effective way of making a significant future gift with modest premiums today.

Creating a Gift Annuity is a method you can utilize to develop a significant legacy for the future, while receiving a stable lifetime income stream, with immediate tax savings. If you are 70 years or older and still require income from your assets, you can incorporate a charitable gift annuity as part of your estate plan. A charitable gift annuity allows you to give a gift, save tax, and increase your income.

Here's how it works:

• You make an irrevocable contribution of $10,000 or more for a gift, plus annuity
• A portion of the funds, as determined by you (minimum 25%), becomes an immediate gift to the MNjcc
• The remaining funds are used by the MNjcc to purchase an annuity from an insurance company, which will meet the gift annuity income obligation to you
• The annuity income depends on your age and the size of your contribution

‍The benefits of creating a charitable gift annuity: 

• Increased income - The income from the annuity may be higher than a fixed income investment
• No management required - The annuity requires no management on your part. You do not have to watch investments, interest rates, maturity dates and so forth. Your payments are sent to you automatically and regularly
• Guaranteed income for life - The annuity is guaranteed; it will continue as long as you live, no matter what happens to the economy or interest rates
• Spouses can benefit - You may choose a joint-and-survivorship annuity that continues as long as either spouse lives
• Donation receipt - You will receive a donation receipt for the amount of the gift portion to the MNjcc, which will result in a tax credit
