Please note: Rates for Immediate and Deferred Charitable Gift Annuities Will Decline this Fall

As of October 1, 2008, Smith will reduce the rates it offers for charitable gift annuities. Annuity rates are still appealing when compared with CDs or yields on stocks, and this type of gift offers a way to support Smith and retain an income stream for life for you or a loved one.

The current rates for immediate gift annuities are listed below, along with the rates that will become effective on October 1. Learn more about how a charitable gift annuity could benefit both you and Smith.

Deferred payments gift annuity rates will also decline. To ask for a tailored illustration, please contact the Office of Gift Planning at planned_giving@smith.edu or at (800) 241-2056 option 5.
