Bequests

A gift through your will or estate, known as a bequest, is an easy way to plan a future gift for Josh McDowell Ministry.

A will is your opportunity to direct how your estate — regardless of its size — passes upon your death. You can support Josh McDowell Ministry by making a gift of a specific dollar amount, by giving a specific asset, or by making a gift of a percentage of your estate. You may revoke a bequest at any point during your lifetime.

It is best if you make your bequest “unrestricted,” or direct it to a specific purpose. Restrictions placed on the use of your gift need to still provide Josh McDowell Ministry with maximum flexibility, as our priorities and programs change over time.

The benefits to you:

  • Your assets remain in your control during your lifetime.
  • You can modify your gift to address changing circumstances.
  • You can direct your gift to a particular purpose (be sure to check with us to make sure your gift can be used as intended).
  • Under current tax law, there is no upper limit on the estate tax deduction for your charitable bequests.

Please let us know if you have already included Josh McDowell Ministry in your estate plan, or if you are considering doing so, so that we may celebrate your generosity with you now. Your plans remain confidential.
