About Us
Passing on the Faith. Planting for the Future.
Our Mission
At the Lutheran Legacy Foundation our mission is to help you create meaningful, lasting legacies that nurture Christian faith and values for future generations. Our mission is to strengthen the future of Lutheranism by making endowment giving simple, accessible, and spiritually grounded.
Who We Serve
From faithful givers to Faith-filled communities.
What We Do
We equip stewards of the Gospel.
If you’re looking to support Lutheran causes, LLF is here to guide you. We offer:
- Personalized legacy planning
- Investment and management of charitable funds
- Matching gift opportunities
- Tools and resources for congregations
- Support for professional advisors
We steward each gift with care and clarity, so your intentions are honored and your impact is multiplied.
Why It Matters
Because faith isn't just for today.
The Gospel is timeless, but the institutions that carry it forward need lasting support. LLF helps ensure that schools, congregations, and missions not only survive, but thrive—generation after generation.
Our Approach
To be faithful stewards of your financial future
Individuals and ministries need to steward gifts that last. Through education, endowment development, and legacy planning, we equip Lutherans to give faithfully, grow wisely, and support the Church for generations.
We provide hands-on support for Lutheran schools, congregations, and seminaries, and more—and walk alongside donors as they craft plans that reflect their values.
