Why GIve
Time inevitably marches along. As life changes, it is important to plan how to distribute your assets. One’s estate is a trust accumulated over the years through work, prudent management, and God’s providence. When giving to the LOPC Foundation, you:

- Return some of the Gifts God has provided to you to those served by LOPC’s ministries.
- Extend LOPC’S Christ-Centered Ministries near and far, beyond your lifetime.

HOW ASSETS ARE MANAGED
The Foundation is served by a board of nine Trustees, all of whom are active members of the church, most having served as Elders. The Foundation employs a trusted firm of financial advisors who invest the funds according to a Board-approved investment policy. Per recent investment policy changes, a significant percentage of funds are ESG funds, mutual funds that are operated according to Environmental, Social and corporate Governance guidelines.
Disbursements are made after requests by the Session but only up to a conservative percentage, in order to grow the portfolio for future needs.
