How We Work With Organizations
- We are committed to the principles of Christian Stewardship. Every discussion of the use of God's resources is based upon recognition that God owns it all. It is our responsibility to act as God's stewards with the management of His gifts to us.
- We help Christians accomplish their Estate Planning goals. This means that income needs and requirements are considered in each plan. Attorneys who are knowledgeable in charitable giving benefits as well as Estate Plans facilitate the process.
- We assure complete confidentiality in the planning process. People feel secure in providing us with necessary information to develop an Estate Plan because the planning is objective and independent, and all information is confidential. Financial details and family situations are not disclosed to any organization.
- We do not sell or encourage any particular financial or investment products. Nor do we refer people or companies offering investment products.
- Our planning services are provided at no charge. We provide our services at no charge and with no obligation, thanks to the annual contributions made by the Foundation's nearly 200 Christian member organizations.
- We do not ask for any gifts. No gifts to Barnabas Foundation are either solicited or encouraged. You can be assured that we do no fundraising for ourselves or other organizations as part of the planning process.
- We provide excellent marketing support for our members. We work with you to help market Planned Gifts by providing specific materials that you can adapt for your own use.
- We offer Stewardship Education and Development programs. Used by churches and Christian organizations, Barnabas Foundation provides speakers and other resources. Our purpose is to advance the understanding of stewardship as an essential part of a Christian lifestyle.
