Discover the Benefits of Giving Wisely
Your visit to our Gift Planning Resource Center truly pleases us. We thank you for allowing us to become a member of your charitable gift planning team. We know that a gift commitment to us must take your personal needs and responsibilities into account. Our planned gifts are reciprocal gifts, returning benefits that can reduce your taxes, increase your retirement income and address your family's financial obligations -- while they are ministering to the spiritual and material needs of the poor.
We can help you make a significant commitment to our work without affecting your cash balance -- by using appreciated securities to make your gift. We can guide you and your advisors in incorporating charitable bequests and gifts of life insurance into your estate and financial planning. And, we offer gift plans that return income to you, so that a gift to Food For The Poor can also help with your retirement, education and family needs.
This website will show you how the following strategies can stretch your giving ability, and help you while they help us. But before you review our gift plans, take a moment to consider your charitable options and learn about Giving Wisely.
