Deferred Gift Annuity



How It Works

  • You transfer cash or securities to Newark Beth Israel Medical Center. Our minimum gift requirement is $20,000.
  • Beginning on a specified date in the future, Newark Beth Israel Medical Center begins to pay you, or up to two annuitants you name, fixed annuity payments for life.
  • Generally, deferred gift annuities may be created by donors of any age. However, a beneficiary must be at least 40 years of age before deferred gift annuity payments commence to the beneficiary.
  • The remaining balance passes to Newark Beth Israel Medical Center when the contract ends.

Benefits

  • Deferral of payments permits a higher annuity rate and generates a larger charitable deduction.
  • You can schedule your annuity payments to begin when you need extra cash flow, such as retirement years.
  • Payments are guaranteed and fixed, regardless of fluctuations in the market.
  • The longer you elect to defer payments, the higher your payment will be.
