Charitable Gift Annuities

You can support the work of The Conservation Fund now and enjoy secure, fixed payments for life with a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA).

A CGA accomplishes two goals—preserving the landscapes you cherish through a gift to the Fund and retaining income through fixed payments to you or your loved ones. A portion of the payments may be tax-free, and you will be entitled to a charitable income tax deduction. Contact us for current rates and deductions.

Real Estate

The Fund’s experts in real estate markets, portfolio management and tax policies will help you convert real estate—land, homes and commercial buildings—into capital for conservation.

Donor Advised Funds
