Product Description

The Planned Giving Buckslip for Churches is a professionally designed insert that introduces parishioners to the idea of leaving a faith-based legacy. Compact yet powerful, it explains simple ways members can include the church in their estate plans—without affecting their current finances.

This ready-to-use resource is branded with your church’s name and contact information. It features clear, easy-to-understand examples of giving methods (bequests, beneficiary designations, retirement assets, life insurance, and memorial gifts) along with scriptural reinforcement (Proverbs 13:22).

Each buckslip is designed to:

  • Encourage members to think beyond the collection plate
  • Show how easy it is to create a lasting legacy of faith
  • Connect weekly giving to long-term mission impact
  • Invite members to share their plans and join your Legacy Circle

Why Every Church Must Have This

  • Secures your future ministry – Weekly offerings cover today’s expenses; planned gifts build tomorrow’s foundation.
  • Educates simply and clearly – Many members want to give to your church but don’t know how. This buckslip shows them it can be as easy as signing a form.
  • Speaks their language – Faith-based messaging and scripture connect planned giving to spiritual values, not just finances.
  • Creates lasting impact – Members can support missions, outreach, and future generations without reducing current giving.
  • Proven tool – Developed by PlannedGiving.com, trusted by hundreds of churches and nonprofits nationwide.
