Many years ago, devoted members and friends began the Capitol Drive Lutheran Church Foundation as an endowment which has been an essential resource for our continuing ministry in the heart of Milwaukee. Today, the Foundation Fund helps support all of the ministries at CDLC. A small percentage of our Foundation Fund is used each year to support current parish programs.  The Foundation Fund continues to serve the congregation as it has throughout the life of the church.

Memorials and gifts to the Foundation are welcome at any time.  A gift in honor of celebrations such as a wedding anniversary or birthday or a memorial at the time of a loved one's death are always welcome.  Your gift may be given in different ways:

   Bequest made as part of your will or living trust.
   Memorial in memory of family and friends.
   Cash donation.
   Gift in honor of family and friends.
   Planned gift through charitable annuities or trusts.
   Beneficiary designation through life insurance.
   Planned gifts by means of retirement fund assets. 
   Any other gift that you would like to make.

Most importantly, you may celebrate the joy of giving as a steward of God’s gifts. Your gift will help Capitol Drive Lutheran Church Sound the Love of Christ today and in years to come. You may also benefit from tax deductions related to your charitable giving.
