Welcome to Presbyterian Children's Homes and Services Planned Giving

The Rev. Elliot Smith
Vice President for Development

Your interest in helping children in need and their families is deeply appreciated! Presbyterian Children's Homes and Services' goal is to provide you with helpful gift planning information. Many friends of this ministry we share are currently enjoying the peace of mind that comes with receiving a guaranteed lifetime income while knowing their gift ultimately will be used to help children in need.

You can learn how you can create your own legacy of caring right here on our website. Take your time, look around, and feel free to contact me with any questions. I will be happy to assist you in your planning. Blessings to you and yours!

Benefits for Family and Presbyterian Children's
Homes and Services
There are several types of plans. Many of these have wonderful benefits for the gift donors. Many of these families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings. You might start by meeting these friends. Just click on the picture and you can view each story.

Part Gift and Part Sale
Sue and Jim Wilson bought their first home many years ago. As they were landscaping in the yard, painting and fixing up that home, Jim was impressed with the home improvement store. More on Part Gift and Part Sale >>.

Current Gifts
As is the case with many families, there are times each year when Jim and Sharon focus their attention on gift giving. For years, they have created a gift list that includes family members, friends and loved ones. More on Current Gifts >>.

A Bequest to Further Good Work
Nancy and David Atkins were dedicated volunteers. Over the years, they had seen many individuals impacted by the good work of our organization. They wanted to create a legacy to provide future support to continue our mission. More on A Bequest to Further Good Work >>.

Deferred Gift Annuity
Several years ago Larry and Allison invested $30,000 in what they believed to be an attractive stock. It turned out to be a very wise decision, because the value of the stock increased to $100,000 a few years later. More on Deferred Gift Annuity >>.
