Dear John,
Believe it or not, there are now just 12 hours left in 2019!
The last 12 months have been pivotal for defenders of Life, Family, and Religious Freedom. And without a doubt, 2020 will be even more critical.
We are uniquely positioned to make a significant and lasting difference in this crucial election year here in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
That's where you come in. We are entirely dependent on your contributions (especially at the end of the year).
In fact, almost 50% of our entire budget comes from donations in December. Will you be one of thousands of Minnesotans who donate to protect life, family, and religious freedom in our state?
And remember that all gifts to Minnesota Family Institute postmarked or received by 11:59 PM tonight (December 31st) are fully tax-deductible for 2019.
From all of us at Minnesota Family Council & Institute, and from my wife Randa and me, thank you so much for your support. May our Lord richly bless you and your family in 2020!
Finally, if you have already given online, remember that there are other ways to give.
BY CHECK - You can mail your gift to: Minnesota Family Institute, 2855 Anthony Lane South #150, Minneapolis, MN 55418. Remember, your gift must be postmarked by today, December 31st, to qualify for tax deduction in 2019.
STOCK GIFTS - You can support us through a gift of stock. Please contact Cheryl at [email protected] or 612-789-8811 ext 202, or John at [email protected] or 612-789-8811 ext 224 if we can assist you with a gift of stock or answer any questions you may have.
PLANNED GIVING - If you are over 70 1/2 years of age, consider giving directly through your IRA. If you must take a Required Minimum Distribution from your retirement account (other than an ongoing SEP or SIMPLE IRA), you may avoid a taxable event by giving directly to Minnesota Family Institute through a Qualified Charitable Distribution. Contact Cheryl at chery[email protected] or 612-789-8811 ext 202, or John at [email protected] or 612-789-8811 ext 224.
LEGACY GIVING - Invest in your lasting legacy by including a generous gift to Minnesota Family Institute in your estate planning or will. Your gift will help us fight to preserve family, faith and freedom for future generations.
P.S. Mark your calendars now for our 2020 Annual Gala Dinner on May 11th, with keynote speaker Abby Johnson, the former Planned Parenthood director turned pro-life activist whose story of transformation inspired the hit movie Unplanned. Registration is now open - click here to register!
