“My charitable gift annuity with Gilman enables me to donate a substantial tax-deductible charitable gift and use the income for a specific purpose while I still live.”
Establishing a charitable gift annuity with Gilman School allows Clarence S. “Butsy” Lovelace ’40, age 92, to accomplish two goals: to arrange a significant deferred gift for the School and, using his tax-free lifetime annuity payments, to help his granddaughter Leah purchase her first apartment in San Francisco. “Someday Leah may no longer need the money,” he says, “but Gilman always will.”
