Lutherhaven Fund
The Lutherhaven Fund
To sustain and grow our programs we rely on contributions to the annual Lutherhaven Fund from donors like you. For over 77 years Lutherhaven Ministries has been about celebrating where we’ve been, strengthening where we are, and stretching toward where we’re going as we share God’s love.
To accomplish all three we need YOU in our vision, helping us develop needed resources – financial, facilities, and program – to support and further the Mission.
Thanks for putting your faith into action, celebrating God’s gracious blessings to you by linking your present with our future.
Rebecca Smith, Executive Director
Ways to Make a Gift
There are many ways to make a gift to Lutherhaven, including both outright and planned gifts. Here are some of the most popular planned giving options.
Consult with your own tax and legal advisers to fully understand the tax implications of particular gift plans. Lutherhaven also has experts available to help you through your planned giving options to benefit your camps.
-
Cash
Cash is the simplest, most direct, and most popular type of gift. A gift of cash is considered made on the date it is hand-delivered or post-marked and, because of the charitable tax deduction, your net cost can be much less than the actual amount of the gift. For example, if you are in the 33% tax bracket, the net cost of a $1,000 cash gift is only $670 after your $330 tax savings.

Securities and Real Estate
Gifts of appreciated property such as securities and real estate are popular alternatives to cash. These gifts generate a double tax benefit. In addition to receiving a charitable income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the property, you avoid capital gains tax on the capital-gain as well, provided the property has been held for more than one year. Contact us to make direct transfers of appreciated assets.
-
Gifts of Grain
For many farmers, significant tax savings can be achieved by donating crops directly to Lutherhaven. Let us know if you’d like more information on how your gift of grain can save you money and benefit the camp you love!
-
Legacy Giving
Has your life been impacted through Outdoor Ministry? Consider leaving a forever legacy with a bequest to Lutherhaven’s endowment fund. Bequests to the Endowment fund give twice: now and forever. 20% of bequests help immediate needs and the remaining 80% is invested in perpetuity, giving to Lutherhaven forever!
