"The gift that keeps on giving"

 

     

      The Beth-El Farmworker Ministry, Inc. has created the Beth-El Endowment Fund to make it possible for you to show your care and concern for migrant farmworkers throughout your lifetime and beyond.  A gift to the Beth-El Endowment Fund will support the Mission's continuing efforts to welcome, educate and encourage migrant farmworkers in their many struggles. The Mission will tap only the growth and earnings from this Fund, meaning your donation will continue to support farmworkers long after your lifetime.

 Got a Question?  

Q.--- Why should I make financial decisions like this now?

A.--- Planning the distribution of your assets can help you sort out your priorities while giving thanks and praising God for your blessings. As you plan, should your priorities include supporting an outreach to migrant farmworkers, we invite you to consider Beth-El.  

 

Q.--- What type of gifts can be made to the Fund?

A.--- All types of financial gifts can be made to the Beth-El Endowment Fund. The simplest form is a bequest, written into your will, simply stating the amount or portion of your estate you would like to leave to the Beth-El Endowment Fund. Planned gifts, the wide variety of life income plans, and life insurance policies are some of the many other ways you can make a substantial gift to ensure the continuation of our outreach to farmworkers. 

 

Q.--- Where is the money invested?

A.--- The funds of the Beth-El Endowment Fund are invested with the oldest charitable foundation in America, the Presbyterian Church (USA) Foundation, founded in 1799. This foundation has over $2 billion in assets and follows a policy of socially responsible investing. The PC(USA) Foundation provides the assistance of a local professional Development Officer, well versed in the details of creating various life income plans and deferred gifts.

 

Q.--- What areas of service can be endowed?

A.--- Endow the Fund-A-Future Society to provide the programs and facilities for a top quality education program for preschool education, elementary school, middle school, and adult education, all aimed at the special needs of recent immigrants from Latin American countries.
