Planned gifts represent significant commitments by our donors to help LHS plan and fund its future. These gifts come from the heart and provide substantial lifetime or testamentary support to LHS. They are a vote of confidence in our mission, values, and programs and serve as a shining testament and positive example to other prospective donors.

Growing the number of major and planned gift donors is a key goal of LHS Foundation. Achieving this goal is foundational to our future and vital to those children and elders we serve. We welcome and encourage your consideration of these giving options and the opportunities they provide to meet your family needs and your LHS charitable interests.

Many donors make their ultimate gifts through a bequest or their estate plans. Many others purchase charitable gift annuities or create trusts that deliver income for their lifetimes with the charitable remainder designated to support LHS.

Planned gift donors become members of the Johannes Doerfler Fellowship, our planned giving society, and are invited to attend the annual Festival of Life luncheon.

Thank you for remembering Lutheran Homes Society.
