Welcome!

Jose LeGrand
Director of Planned Giving and Trust Services

Thank you for your interest in the Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Our hope is to serve you and your family with helpful information. We have an increasing number of friends at Florida Conference Planned Giving who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities, and other plans.

When considering making a gift, there are several charitable methods to choose from to best fit your financial planning goals. You may be interested in learning more about which method would provide an immediate income for you and your spouse, or which method would provide an income for retirement planning. To see the exact results that these gifts would have for you and your family, please look at our gift calculator.
