A charitable gift annuity (CGA) is a wonderful way to support SSP International while securing a fixed income for yourself or a loved one. By contributing to a CGA, you can receive reliable payments for life, while also making a significant difference in the lives of the students we serve.

How It Works:
• You make a gift to SSP International, and in return, you receive fixed payments for life. These payments can be made annually, quarterly, or monthly, depending on your preferences.
• A portion of your contribution may be tax-deductible, and you may benefit from lower capital gains taxes if you contribute appreciated assets.
• After your lifetime, the remaining balance of your gift will support SSP International’s mission to provide educational opportunities for underrepresented students.
