Ways of Contributing to the Foundation
One can contribute gifts of any size to the Christ Lutheran Church Foundation in a variety of ways including:
- To honor or memorialize someone through a gift of cash
- Through gifts of real estate
- Through investments, such as stocks or mutual funds
- By naming the Foundation as the beneficiary of an insurance policy
- By including the Foundation in your will
- Through your estate planning
By leaving retirement plan assets (IRA’s, 401(k)’s, etc.) to the - Foundation through beneficiary designation
We ask that all individuals who have made future commitments to the Foundation notify the church office as to the specific nature of that commitment. This specific information will be held in strict confidence, and the gift will be subject to approval by the Foundation.
Benefits to Donor
Your gift will provide for the continuing ministry and outreach of Christ Lutheran Church. Additionally, there may be specific financial benefits to the donor including:
- An immediate charitable income tax deduction may be claimed
- Capital gains tax may be totally or partially avoided with certain types of gifts
- Estate and gift taxes may be reduced
It is not the size of the gift but the size of the giver’s heart that matters to God.
