An endowment like Jean’s does more than preserve financial resources. It cultivates a culture of generosity. It teaches future generations that giving is not just something we do; it is a reflection of who we are. Each time her fund supports a ministry or meets a need, her example continues to inspire others to give in their own way. Establishing a ministry or family endowment is one of the most meaningful ways to live out your faith. It transforms your personal story into a legacy that keeps blessing others year after year, generation after generation. Endowments are not only financial tools; they are expressions of trust in God’s ongoing work through your church and community.
When you create an endowment, you are saying:
“I believe in the future of this ministry.” “I want my generosity to outlive me.” “I want to inspire others to give as I have given.”
Your legacy can provide lasting support for the ministries that matter most to you. What inspires you—worship and music, missions and outreach, youth or camping ministries, community care, your local church, your region? The ministries of ABHMS and IM? With thoughtful planning through the American Baptist Foundation, you can create an endowment that reflects your faith and strengthens ministry for generations to come.
Like Jean, whose faith left a lasting impact in her community, your generosity can continue to inspire others. To learn more about featured funds, visit:
