American Red Cross

Your gift of money, marketable securities, or both to the American Red Cross's pooled income fund is invested together with similar gifts from other supporters. Each year, you receive your share, which is taxable as ordinary income, of the fund's earning.

For example, Mr. Simon's $10,000 life income gift is invested in our pooled income fund. The fund's net income is 6 percent this year, so he receives $600--his share of the annual earnings. Each year, Mr. Simon's payment will reflect any increase or decrease in the fund's net income.

For details on this program, sample rates, and other giving opportunities, please contact our Planned Giving Officer Kathleen Wright by sending an email or by calling 1-888-868-1992.
