Giving to the Seminary
Since 1830 Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary has been called to the mission
of preparing women and men for ordained and lay ministries in the church of Jesus
Christ. Every gift to Southern Seminary enables this seedbed of the church to
continue its enduring legacy of theological education and formation for ministry.
METHODS OF PLANNED GIVING – You decide how
to offer your gift:
MONETARY GIFTS - Gifts of money help the seminary today as funds area applied
to immediate needs.
PLEDGES - Monetary gifts may be pledged over a period of time which the donor
arranges with the seminary.
DESIGNATED OR UNDESIGNATED GIFTS - Donors may designate their gifts for a particular purpose or program, and the seminary applies those funds in accordance with the giver's stipulations. Undesignated gifts support the general operating expenditures of the seminary.
STOCKS AND SECURITIES - Long-term appreciated securities or stocks are
a convenient method of contribution and may be advantageous to the donor pursuant
to IRS regulations.
PROPERTY - Marketable real estate, personal property, long-term capital
assets, or gifts in kind of established value may be contributed with tax benefits
accruing to the donor.
Contact Ron Walrath, Vice President of Development and Seminary Relations and let him assist in coordinating gifts through bequests or other planned giving arrangements. Gifts can be fashioned to continue serving the donor to best advantage while providing substantial and significant benefit to Southern Seminary. |
Presenting gifts as an organization or attending Fund Raising functions, the joy is in giving!
