GIVING IS PERSONAL
Endowment Giving, even in the present moment, is not designed to replace the weekly/monthly Current & Benevolence Offerings or the Mortgage Debt Retirement. Rather, the Give Now, Give Later and Give and Receive opportunities described below suggest different and creative ways to provide resources for the future life of our church. What will Mt. Pleasant Lutheran Church look like in another ten, twenty or even fifty years? Contributions made through the Mt. Pleasant Lutheran Church Endowment Fund help provide a living presence for our congregation of tomorrow.
Learn how a giving partnership through The Mt. Pleasant Lutheran Church Endowment Fund and InFaith Community Foundation can maximize your support to charities and causes that reflect your values, and can also increase your benefits as a donor:
- Make a charitable gift while providing for your family;
- Make a charitable gift and, in turn, receive an ongoing stream of income;
- Benefit multiple missions with one gift – immediately and in the future; and
- Reduce or eliminate federal income, estate and gift taxes.
