Welcome to the AFA Foundation
The AFA Foundation is a division of the American Family Association dedicated to providing charitable giving and estate design tools that will help you and your family become wise stewards of your God-given resources.
We can help you evaluate the many gift-planning opportunities available to you today. An increasing number of AFA friends are experiencing joy by giving to the Kingdom through a Charitable Gift Annuity, Charitable Trust, or Christian Will. And with certain gifts, the donors reap benefits such as a charitable income tax deduction and lifetime payments that are partially tax-free for a number of years.
Please take a few moments to explore our website and enjoy the wealth of information available to you. We look forward to serving you! To learn more about the types of planned gifts that will benefit you and your family please click here.
Benefits For Family and American Family Association
There are several types of giving plans. Many provide wonderful benefits for the donor. Several families have experienced the joy of giving charitably to help further our ministry, while also receiving increased income and generous tax savings as an ancillary benefit. You might start by meeting these friends. Just click on the picture and you can view each story.
