Many friends of Hume have chosen to include a planned gift to this ministry from their life estate. We believe that the future of our ministry will increasingly depend on such gifts, and we desire to provide the needed counsel to help people work through their estate plans. David Harrison, who was our Director of Gift and Estate Planning, offered that service for ten-plus years here at Hume but moved into the retirement season along with his wife, Judy, one year ago.
The good news is that Hume Ministries continues to offer complimentary estate planning services through a long-time trusted ministry partner, PhilanthroCorp. I now have the privilege to oversee this area of our ministry and look forward to talking with you about it.
We can help you start and also connect you with the estate specialists at PhilanthroCorp, who do have the same wise counsel that David Harrison offered.
PhilanthroCorp has helped thousands of families create Wills and Trusts that meet their family goals, save taxes, and provide peace of mind. Their experts will help you understand your options for reaching your goals of providing for the family and ministries you care about.
They will speak with you as often as you need to ensure that the finished plan is what you desire. Once the estate plan is determined, they can connect you with a network of trusted Christian attorneys to draw up the legal papers, or you can choose your own personal attorney.
Please get in touch with me to answer any questions or, hopefully, to start the process. Please know that you are not under any obligation to include Hume Ministries in your estate. My contact information is below, but you can also call PhilanthroCorp directly and identify yourself as a friend of Hume. I look forward to talking!
