Smart & Effective Giving

Creative Solutions for Greater Kingdom Impact

Trinity Anglican Seminary is to be a global center for Christian formation in the evangelical Anglican tradition, producing outstanding leaders who can plant, renew, and grow churches that make disciples of Jesus Christ. To this end we are forming Christian leaders for mission.

Wish you could do more?

There are smart and creative ways to increase your impact—often while benefiting your family, too.

By understanding the available options, you can multiply the end results of your generosity in ways that are flexible, cost-effective and powerful.

  • Gifts In A Will

    Make the ultimate statement to your loved ones and the world about what matters most to you. When you give to ministry from your will or trust, you model a legacy of generosity. You also help ensure Trinity Anglican Seminary will continue to have impact for generations to come.

    • Extend the impact of your generosity, well beyond your lifetime.
    • Experience the joy of putting your resources to work for the Kingdom.
    • Retain access to resources for as long as you need them.
    • Change your mind at any time about how your gifts are designated.
    • Give beyond what would ever be possible during your lifetime.
  • Language For A Will

    "I give to Trinity Anglican Seminary, a nonprofit ministry with its principal offices located at 311 11th Street, Ambridge, Pennsylvania [the sum of $ ___] OR [___% of the residue of my estate], to be used [for its general purposes] OR [Designated Purpose]. If, in its opinion, the need for funds for the designated purpose no longer exists, Trinity Anglican Seminary is authorized to use these funds for a similar purpose."

  • Gifts That Pay Income

    Lifetime income gifts are wonderful solutions if you wish you could give more, but you’re concerned about having enough income. You can give cash or other assets, then you will receive steady income for the rest of your life. The remainder will go to Trinity Anglican Seminary!

    Key Benefits

    • Receive income payments for life.
    • Repurpose assets you no longer need or care to manage (such as rental property orvacation homes).
    • Receive an income tax deduction at the time of your gift.
    • Reduce capital gains tax when funding your gift with appreciated assets.
