legacy giving

What is a planned gift?

A planned gift is an arranged donation to a charitable organization, like Multiply, in the future through estate and financial planning. For many, the sale or transfer of assets upon death presents someone with the single greatest opportunity for generosity in their life. Strategic planned giving should:

• Meet your needs and the needs of those you love, for life
• Provide valuable tax credit 
• Enable you to leave a legacy for your family and funding for kingdom work long after you are gone.

Learn more about the different types of planned gifts and different assets you can give.

Why does a planned gift matter to Multiply?

Planned gifts allow us to do just that — plan ahead and meet our program needs well into the future. Many Multiply supporters have generously set up planned gifts over the years, which continue to empower us in our mission to help the world come to know Jesus. A planned gift can provide long-term financial stability and sustainability for our people, projects and work overall. So please remember us in your will and trusts - it really does make a difference!

Where to start

Meet with a Multiply representative

Our Regional Mobilizers and Directors have expertise in helping supporters find alignment between their own deeply held beliefs and priorities and the specific opportunities within Multiply. They would be happy to help you explore how a planned gift to Multiply might fit in your life plan. If you would prefer, they could also speak directly with your financial or legal advisor. Contact your nearest regional office to arrange a visit.

Consult a professional advisor

Foundations like MB Foundation (US) or Abundance Canada (formerly Mennonite Foundation) can provide you with free consultations when planning your gift.

Advisors from organizations like these can help you align your resources of cash and other assets with your personal values. Along with the Multiply representative, the advisor can match your wishes with your resources and the needs of Multiply. An experienced professional advisor will help you determine how much and when to give to maximize your gift and tax benefits.

In the US, call MB Foundation toll free at 1.800.551.1547 or learn more at: MB Foundation
In Canada, call Abundance Canada toll free at 1.800.772.3257 or learn more at: Abundance Canada

Please consider letting us know if you have included Multiply, MB Mission or C2C Network in your estate plans. We would like to thank you for your generosity, get to know you better and hear about what you most want to see accomplished through our work.

Leah’s Story

Leah* had a strong desire to see the least reached in South Asia come to know Jesus. By planning for a portion of her estate to be given to Multiply’s work there, she left a long-lasting legacy of transformation! Her gift was used to launch a new, long-term church planting team that would go on to share Christ in this restricted region where many families are closed to and suspicious of the Gospel message. Because of Leah’s generosity, many people in South Asia now have the opportunity to hear about Jesus!
