Welcome!

Making a planned gift is a wonderful way to show your support and appreciation for Luther Seminary and its mission, while accommodating your own personal, financial, estate planning, and philanthropic goals. With smart planning, you may actually increase the size of your estate, save on taxes, receive income for life, or enjoy other financial benefits – all the while knowing that you have made a wonderful gift to Luther Seminary.


We recommend that you familiarize yourself with various gift options by exploring How to Give and What to Give tabs or download or request for free The Guide to Estate Planning or The Guide to Gift Planning. These resources will give you a basic understanding of gift planning and allow you to compare options that are best for you. And, of course, please contact us for assistance or to discuss your personal situation and goals.

We want to help guide your clients in their charitable giving interests. Below are resources to update you on the latest tax and charitable giving laws, gift calculators, and news from Washington to keep you and your client up-to-date.
