The Lutheran World Relief Community Quilt



Nothing feeds the soul quite like sharing our gifts with others. More and more people are naming LWR in their wills and working with financial advisors to support LWR now and into the future.

 

other ways to support

LWR's mission and ministry

The LWR Community Quilt represents just some of the ways you can support LWR. While Gift Squares are fun and creative ways to give presents that support our mission, there are other ways to support LWR that have different tax advantages and long-term benefits for you, your heirs and LWR.

Besides cash, which is the most effective way to support LWR, there are other ways to contribute, including our Parable Partners monthly giving program that authorizes regular deductions from your checking or savings account. Workplace giving campaigns and matching gift programs also are great ways to support our ministry. Ask your employer about them today.

Many of our contributors support LWR by donating appreciated assets such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Others leave bequests to LWR or name LWR in their wills. You can even name LWR as the beneficiary of an existing or a new life insurance policy.

There are numerous planned giving choices that will ensure LWR’s ministry and meet your financial planning needs. For expert assistance, call Thrivent Financial for Lutherans at (800) 847-4836, the ELCA Foundation at (800) 638-3522, LCMS Foundation at (888) 930-4438 or the Lutheran Community Foundation at (800) 365-4172. If you prefer, call the LWR Resource Development Department at 410-230-2815, email us at ftroxler@lwr.org or read more online at www.lwr.org/giving.

Your past support of LWR has enabled us to help the millions of people whose lives we’ve touched in our sixty years. What will be your legacy for LWR’s next sixty? Through thoughtful planning, and with the proper expertise and resources, yours can be a rich legacy that bears testament to the Christ-like life you were called to live at your baptism.
