LEAVE A LEGACY

THE VISION
It is Another Child’s goal to reach, teach and transform the lives of orphans and at-risk children. We are fortunate to live in a country where our children have access to many personal growth opportunities, but it is a constant struggle to meet the needs of orphans and at-risk children in other countries.
It is time for us to come together and to radically change the lives of these children by providing them a hopeful future. This is your opportunity to make a lasting difference to children who have the same hopes and dreams of the children you love.
In recognition of the need for sustain revenue for ministry, the Another Child Foundation’s Board of Directors created an Endowment fund in 2013. Endowment fund gifts ensure we can continue to offer a gold standard ministry for all children we serve and secure a stable source of unrestricted income.
The Endowment Steering Team oversees and distributes funds that provide life-changing programs for the children we serve.
Program areas include:
- Education
- Housing
- Health Care
- Psychological Care
- Self-Improvement
Funds can also be used to provide for capital improvements in facilities the programs need to function.
The purpose of the endowment fund is to encourage supporters to make legacy gifts to Another Child Foundation that will provide stable and growing resources to further its mission and ministries.
Examples of what a Legacy Gift could include:
- Cash
- Stocks, Bonds, & Mutual Funds
- Memorials & Tributes
- Bequests
- Life Insurance
- Real Estate
- Retirement Plan Beneficiary Designations
- Tangible Personal Property
- Remainder Interests in Property
- Oil, Gas and Mineral Interests
- Bargain Sales
- Charitable Gift Annuities
- Charitable Remainder Trusts
- Charitable Lead Trusts
