How Can I Give?

There are several ways you can support the mission of the Greater New York Conference through planned giving. Explore the options below to find the one that best fits your situation.

Last Will And Testament

Everyone, no matter your current financial status, should have a Last Will and Testament. A Last Will and Testament not only directs who is in charge of your estate, but also names a Guardian for any minor children and a Trustee who would manage the funds for the children's care. Your gift to the Greater New York Conference Association of Seventh-day Adventists can be given as an unrestricted gift, or you may specify what ministry, church, and/or school, it is to be used for.
