The Great Commission Staff Legacy Fund
The staff members you support are dependent upon the prayers and contributions you give on their behalf.
The Great Commission Foundation of Campus Crusade for Christ now offers you an opportunity to create a fund to
assure that your support will continue beyond your lifetime.
Establish a Legacy
You can now make a contribution to Campus Crusade for Christ that keeps on giving. Through the Great Commission
Staff Legacy Fund, your special cash or stock gift of $5,000 or more, or a real property gift valued at $30,000
or more, can uniquely help us to fulfill the Great Commission. Your contribution will help reach people in every
walk of life and in every nation of the world.
How it works
The Great Commission Staff Legacy Fund is a special fund created by Campus Crusade for Christ for the purpose
of putting your contribution to long-term use.
Instead of using your contribution to pay for current expenses, it will be invested to generate income.
The income will be put to work in spreading the Gospel, and your contribution will be continually invested
to produce more income indefinitely.
As a donor to the Great Commission Staff Legacy Fund, you will receive a full statement of the condition of
the fund at least once annually.
Choose where you want to apply your gift
You may request the income generated from your contribution to be given to the Campus Crusade for Christ staff member of your choice.
If you make more than one designation, each will receive an equal share of the income from your contribution.
The fund manager will make every effort to grant your designation requests but retains the right to redirect the income
at its discretion.
The Legacy Annuity
We are excited to introduce a new concept that will provide several benefits for you as well as the staff you support.
The Legacy Annuity pays you an income for life, and then the residual amount will continue to support your staff through the Legacy Fund.
The Legacy Annuity will give you a charitable deduction at the time of the gift. If funded with stock or real estate, you avoid
the lump sum capital gains tax. The annuity income is partially tax free.
How to Begin
Start your legacy fund now.
You can place funds in a special account which will be managed to generate the monthly support for your missionaries or projects.
Start a legacy fund through a Will or Trust.
Gifts from your estate are 100% tax deductible. We can help you determine how best to establish this gift.
Make gifts from highly appreciated assets.
Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and real estate can be given at full market value. This creates a tax deduction and at the same time avoids capital gains tax.
Make gifts from retirement assets.
Make the Staff Legacy Fund the beneficiary of part or all of your retirement accounts. The charitable gift avoids income taxes
that can reduce the value of retirement assets by 40%.
Give existing life insurance policies.
Make your legacy account the beneficiary of insurance policies which are no longer needed. If you have insurance policies for the purpose
of paying estate taxes, call us. We will show you how to avoid estate taxes and free up money for ministry.
If you would like to make a contribution to the Great Commission Staff Legacy Fund, please make it payable to The Great Commission
Foundation. If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-449-5454.
By giving to the Great Commission Staff Legacy Fund, you are making a contribution that keeps on giving and leaving a legacy that will
fund Christian evangelism and discipleship for years to come.
