Planned giving

As believers, we have a unique opportunity to be intentional with how we spend both our time and our money. Here at KTIS, our mission is to be intentional in sharing the Gospel of Christ through media. Because we reach over 500,000 of your neighbors in the Twin Cities each week, a planned gift has the potential to affect lives for generations to come. This kind of partnership is called LEGACY GIVING.

There are a number of ways to support KTIS during your lifetime or through your estate which include:

• Bequests through a Will or Trust
• Charitable Gift Annuities provide income for life at an interest rate based on your age
• Charitable Trusts provide income for individuals or couples during their lifetime
• Gifts of Real Estate, Retirement Plans, or Life Insurance designating KTIS as a beneficiary
• Gifts of Stock can help you avoid capital gains tax
