Deacon Nick from Wisconsin is a very generous man, from his vocation as a permanent deacon to his hospital and parish ministries to his many mission trips to Latin America - he constantly gives to others. Deacon Nick has also been instrumental in arranging an annual shipment of clothes, furniture and supplies to assist our work with the poor here in northern Mississippi. As a Sacred Heart Southern Missions charitable gift annuitant Deacon Nick has found another way to give and to get a source of income for himself! Dn. Nick has 12 annuities with Sacred Heart Southern Missions, the oldest dating back 30 years.

Annuities provide that two fold benefit, a guaranteed lifetime income stream with tax benefits for individuals and a gift portion that goes to support our work with the poor.

As you plan for your retirement a charitable gift annuity could be an important part of the mix worth considering. Our gift annuities require a minimum donation of $1,000. Rates are determined by your age but never change once the annuity is funded. Your payments are guaranteed for life. You cannot outlive them!
