Planned Giving

When you create a charitable gift annuity with OU, you and/or a loved one receive guaranteed fixed quarterly payments for life based on your age(s) and a charitable income tax deduction in the year of the donation.

You receive the annuity income for life and the remaining funds after your passing to establish your legacy with OU.

YOUR KEY BENEFITS

  • If you want immediate tax savings but don’t need payments until later, you may choose a deferred annuity.
  • A portion of your annuity payments is tax-free.
  • The older you are when your annuity begins, the higher your payment rate.
