What Does the Indian Rocks Foundation Do?
The Indian Rocks Foundation exists to develop financial resources to enable Indian Rocks Baptist Church to fulfill its mission to help families discover and pursue God’s design for their lives. The Foundation seeks to encourage individuals to embrace this mission and consider investing financially to provide a growing fund and ensure the gospel of Jesus Christ is proclaimed locally and around the world for years to come.
The Indian Rocks Foundation, through partnership with the National Christian Foundation, is able to offer you a full range of charitable giving options to maximize your giving to Indian Rocks Baptist Church.
Ways You Can Give
The Indian Rocks Foundation provides a useful resource to donate non-cash gifts, therefore giving the donor the highest tax benefit. While giving to Indian Rocks Baptist Church usually comes by way of cash and checks, did you know that there are more efficient ways to give? Appreciated non-cash assets such as stocks, real estate, business assets, art collections, and jewelry are additional ways you can support the ministries of Indian Rocks. A gift of this kind would provide significant tax benefits for you and remove assets from your taxable estate.
