Gifts in a Will or Trust

Planned Giving Made Simple

Did you know that more than 67% of Americans don’t have a will?

 

Whether you’ve never created one or it’s been years since you reviewed yours, now is the perfect time to make sure you have a solid, updated plan in place. A good will or trust is the cornerstone of a wise plan. Through our partnership with a team of experts at the Barnabas Foundation, we can help you create a personalized plan (at no cost to you) that will:

  • Protect Your Loved Ones: Ensure your family is cared for according to your wishes

  • Minimize Taxes and Avoid Probate: Reduce financial burdens and simplify the legal process

  • Support Causes You Care About: Allocate assets to OneWay and other ministries that reflect your heart

When you give a gift (also known as a “bequest”) to OneWay Ministries in your will or trust, you model to your loved ones a legacy of generosity. You also help ensure Kingdom impact for years to come.

ONEWAY PARTNER

We knew a couple who had hoped to leave a large portion of their estate to a missions organization they loved, but inadequate estate planning meant that, in the end, their wishes were not honored. Their desire to have a positive effect on the Kingdom of God never happened. Please don't let this happen to you.
