The Matthew25 Legacy Society

We are grateful to the members of the Matthew25 Legacy Society, who sustain the work of Episcopal Relief & Development through such planned gifts as bequests, life income gifts and charitable trusts.

Donations can be designated for the area of greatest need, Episcopal Relief & Development’s endowment funds, a specific program or a particular country.

Planned giving assures our organization of future funding, which we use to:

  • Fight and prevent diseases like malaria, HIV/AIDS and other diseases
  • Improve sanitation and access to clean water
  • Support business and agricultural cooperatives
  • Improve food supply through supplying seeds, tools and training 
  • Expand economic opportunities, particularly for women
  • Help communities plan for and respond to disasters

Gifts to the Matthew25 Legacy Society ensure that Episcopal Relief & Development has the resources to support these programs.

With deep appreciation, we recognize those whose generosity is making a difference in the lives of people around the world, supporting them as they strive to build a better future.

Together, we are healing a hurting world.
