Charitable Gift Annuities

Benefits:

  • Gives you the satisfaction of knowing that your donation is being used immediately in support of the Canadian Diabetes Association’s important work.
  • Guarantees you an income for life without any change.
  • Relieves you of investment worries.

How it works:

  • A single donor (or couple) donates the minimum sum of $10,000 to the Canadian Diabetes Association.
  • Your age (not health) is used to determine the amount of the regular payments you will receive. The older you are the higher the payments, and they are guaranteed for life.
  • The Canadian Diabetes Association purchases a commercial annuity for you.
  • A portion of the donation is retained by the Association to help people affected by diabetes, and a receipt for income tax purposes is issued to you for that amount.
