American Council on Gift Annuities

One of the primary activities of the Council is the publication of suggested charitable gift annuity rates for use by charities and their donors. The Council retains the services of an actuarial firm to advise and consult on matters pertaining to life expectancies and related matters. The Council has a long and distinguished record in this area, and its suggested rates have long been recognized, not only by charities and donors, but also by state insurance departments and the IRS as being actuarially sound and in the best interests of all parties involved. See our Individual State Regulations and Gift Annuity Rates webpages.

The Council's volunteer board of directors is comprised of professionals active in the field of planned giving with some of America's most well-respected charities. These individuals give unselfishly of their time and energy to assist others in their gift annuity programs. (See ACGA Board of Directors).

ACGA offers a conference every two years, for planned giving, development and administrative staff of non-profits and related professionals. Click here for information about the ACGA Biennial Conference.
