Special Occasion Gifts
Birthday Endowments
The American Council on Gift
Annuities has announced effective January1, 2003, the
charitable gift annuity rates will drop. Also, the applicable
federal rate has dropped to an historic low.
Sadly, because of this news
we will no longer be able to offer Birthday and Special
Occasion Annuities. Because of the children’s ages
the annuities will not pass the IRS test for charitable
gifts. We will of course continue to service our remaining
750 special occasion annuities for the children’s
lifetime.
However, we still offer Birthday Endowments
for a gift of $2,500 (or more). Birthday Endowments
send a Heifer International animal to a struggling
family each year in honor of a special person. The
special person will receive a greeting card stating
that in honor of him or her, and as an expression
of your love, a family is receiving a living gift
from Heifer International so they can produce food
for themselves.
