Legacy Giving is a contribution that is arranged in advance and allocated at a future date, commonly donated through a will or a trust. St. Lukes Legacy Giving program provides donors the opportunity to make a lasting gift to the Lord, providing strength and future growth to our church.
We realize financial planning isn’t always a clear and easy process, and for that reason, we’ve created a Legacy Advisory Council to help guide you in leaving a lasting legacy at St. Lukes.
We recognize each person’s financial circumstances are unique. We’ve designed our Legacy Giving program with that in mind, giving a variety of options to accomplish your personal, financial, and charitable goals, as well as the option to designate your gift to a specific purpose to enhance future generations at St. Lukes.
Our Legacy Advisory Council is ready to guide you with the following options in mind:
bequests • investment accounts • personal and real property • outright gifts • charitable remainder • annuity trust • qualified charitable distribution • life insurance • vacant/undeveloped land
Ready to create your legacy? A member of our Legacy Advisory Council led by Legacy Giving Officer Janet Mello is available to meet with you to dicuss all charitable giving options and guide you through the giving process. Simply email Janet at legacy@stlukesreno.org to schedule an appointment. We’ll set a time to meet at the church, review giving options with you, and help you take the next steps to leave a lasting legacy to shape future generations at St. Lukes!
*As with any financial decision, we encourage you to contact your financial, legal, and tax advisors to insure your proposed gift fits your intended financial, tax, and charitable goals.
The success of St. Lukes is due solely to the generosity of our donors. Establishing a solid Legacy Giving program allows us to better plan for our future and set expectations for the direction our church is heading. Thank you for considering leaving a planned gift to St. Lukes!
If you’ve already included St. Lukes in your estate plan, THANK YOU! We’d like to include your gift in our planning and properly thank you for your generous donation! Please email legacy@stlukesreno.org and let us know. Your gift will help sustain St. Lukes for future generations!
