Welcome to the Episcopal Church Foundation's Planned Giving Services
All around the country Episcopal churches and ministries are serving their communities in a myriad of ways, from running homeless shelters and soup kitchens, to providing educational and mentoring programs for youth-at-risk, to sponsoring arts and cultural events, to managing overseas relief efforts, and much, much more. All these good works in service of God's mission depend upon the availability of financial resources now and in the future. The Episcopal Church Foundation can help you be a good steward of God's bounty by helping you to make a planned gift to the church or ministry of your choice. Not only will this act of generosity help ensure the future of an organization whose work is important to you, it will also serve as a testament of your values for generations. The information provided here will help you learn more about how both you and your church can benefit from life-income gifts such as charitable gift annuities and other plans. Thank you for taking the time to explore gift planning.
