Make a Lasting Difference

From its inception Trinity Cathedral has benefited from the support of individuals who thoughtfully anticipated and cared for both its present and future ministries through the opportunities of planned giving. Generosity such as this has allowed Trinity to serve Cleveland and the people of northeast Ohio as a place of committed community service and outreach, transcendent worship and music, and gracious inclusion for more than a century. 

Planned gifts create a legacy that lives on and can include: 

Bequests

The easiest way to make a lasting difference is to remember Trinity Cathedral in your will or estate plan. These gifts to the endowment can perpetually sustain our ministries.  

Life Income Gifts

These gifts provide you or your designated beneficiary with income for life in exchange for your gift, and can reduce or eliminate certain taxes while providing annual income. Trinity Cathedral welcomes life income gifts from Charitable Gift Annuities, Charitable Remainder Trusts, and Charitable Lead Trusts. Please consult your tax or financial advisor for benefits and opportunities specific to your circumstances. 

Retirement Plan Beneficiary Designations

Make a charitable gift of retirement assets and/or qualified charitable distribution by completing a beneficiary designation form naming Trinity Cathedral as a beneficiary.  

Life Insurance

Using a life insurance policy to make a charitable gift can be as easy as completing a beneficiary designation form that names Trinity Cathedral as beneficiary or contingent beneficiary of a new or existing policy, or irrevocable owner.
