more for information about this campaign and how you can be a part.
There are many avenues for financially supporting GGBTS:
Cash – the simplest and most frequently chosen method of giving
Securities – deduct the fair market value of a security (stocks, bonds, mutual funds) and avoid capital gains tax.
Seminary staff can provide professional advice for this method.
Real estate – a gift of homes, farms, rental property, commercial property, or other types of real estate. In some situations, property can be given in such a way as to return income for the donor.
Planned giving – establishment of a trust or gifts through a will (gift annuities, remainder trusts, and testamentary wills)
Gifts in kind – non-cash contributions, accepted depending on the nature of the gift. Items such as jewelry, art, coin collections, antiques, even automobiles, airplanes, boats, or other types of
vehicles are included.
Challenge gifts – a single large gift made to the seminary should certain conditions, set by the donor(s), be met
Matching gifts – gifts that are matched by the donor’s employer (contact your personnel/human resources office for more information)
Honor and memorial gifts – a gift in honor or memory of a loved one
