Welcome to The Salvation Army
Serving those in Western Michigan & Northern Indiana
Thank you for your interest and support. Our desire is to provide you with helpful estate, gift and tax information as you work through your estate planning process. I am reminded the "The hearse doesn't stop at the bank". We are well qualified to assist you in the estate design process of this area of stewardship responsibility for no fee, confidentially, and for no obligation to help care for your desires.
Perhaps you, like many of those who have chosen to partner with us in this ministry, would benefit greatly from making a life income gift like a Charitable Gift Annuity or Charitable Remainder Trust. There are incredible ways to address the desires and needs of your heart and additionally receive wonderful benefits at the same time. It is comforting to know these instruments offer ways to effectively share your heart's desires and help to offset the challenges offered by these turbulent financial times. Perhaps you would like to receive a copy of our free Wills kit to assist you. If so, please click here.
Please feel free to contact me for any other assistance. If you would like to review any other information that may help you in your estate planning process, click here to learn more about these services, opportunities, and other gift planning ideas.
