How It Works

  You transfer cash or securities to Clemson University.

  After the transfer, Clemson University pays you, or up to two annuitants you name, fixed income for life.

  The principal passes to Clemson University when the contract ends.

Benefits

  • You receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your gift.
  • Your annuity payments are guaranteed for life, backed by a reserve and the full assets of Clemson University.
  • Your annuity payments are treated as part ordinary income, part capital gains income (15%), and part tax-free income.
  • You have the satisfaction of making a significant gift that benefits you now and Clemson University later.
