We are excited to share with you that on January 1, for the second time in just six months, payout rates for a charitable gift annuity have increased. This means that when you contribute cash or appreciated securities to fund a CGA with Creighton University, the fixed annual amount the University pays you — or you and another person — for life also has increased.  

Rates are now higher than they have been in more than a decade, making now a great time to consider this gift that benefits you and Creighton. By funding a CGA, you will support our outstanding students while receiving fixed payments for the life of one or two beneficiaries, regardless of the economic climate. Gift annuities can also offer you numerous tax benefits.
