The Future of the Church's Leadership Begins Here.

Making a Planned Gift

Planned gifts include a number of charitable giving methods through which you can make a contribution to Gettysburg Seminary while also assuring your personal and family financial goals are met. Planning a gift should be done in consultation with your family as well as a financial advisor.

If you are considering a planned gift to Gettysburg Seminary, a good place to begin is to contact the Advancement Office. Molly Shane, Director of Advancement, would be happy to speak with you about the process of planning a future gift to the Seminary. You may also request a planned giving brochure by sending an email to: mshane@ltsg.edu.

Regional Gift Planners of the ELCA Foundation are another great resource available to assist you in making a planned gift to Gettysburg Seminary. The list below provides contact information for gift planners in each synod of Region 8.
