ELCA Foundation

As we approach the end of 2024, we’re reminded of the powerful impact of your generosity. ELCA members and supporters such as you have the unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference through year-end giving options that are both impactful and tax-advantaged. In this issue of “Insights,” we’re excited to share a range of ways you can support the work that matters most to you.

Whether you’re considering IRA distributions, gifts of appreciated assets or other avenues, there’s an option to help you make the most of your giving while maximizing tax benefits. As your regional representative with the ELCA Foundation, I’m here to help you explore each of these options, answer your questions and support you in making a gift that best aligns with your goals.

Thank you for your commitment! I look forward to our working together as you plan your year-end gift.
