HOW IT WORKS

  • You transfer cash or securities to Defenders of Wildlife.
  • Defenders of Wildlife pays you or one other beneficiary fixed income for life.
  • The remaining balance passes to Defenders of Wildlife when the contract ends at the death of the last beneficiary.

NOTE:

  • Beneficiaries must be at least 60 years old at the time of the gift.*
  • Our minimum gift requirement is $10,000.

BENEFITS

  • Receive dependable, fixed income for life in return for your gift.
  • Receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your gift.
  • Payments may be much higher than your return on low-earning securities or CDs.
  • A portion of your annuity payment will be tax-free.
