Steps to fund a gift annuity

If you are considering a charitable gift annuity with The Anglican Church of Canada, simply detach and return the coupon at the back of this booklet. You will need to indicate the approximate amount of your intended contribution and the age(s) of the beneficiary(ies). Alternatively, you may call our office, and we would be pleased to answer your questions, send you more information, or schedule a meeting with you.

There is no charge and no obligation to you. We are pleased to offer these services to people who are simply exploring whether or not a gift annuity is appropriate for them. After receiving from us a financial illustration that shows the size of your payments and explains the tax benefits, we would encourage you to discuss it with your own financial and legal advisors.

If you then decide to contribute for an annuity, we will prepare an agreement to be signed by you and an officer of the church, receive your contribution, and take any other necessary steps to complete the transaction.

Gift annuities are becoming increasingly popular in Canada. Through them people can simultaneously make a gift and provide for their future financial security. Let us hear from you if you want to take a closer look.
