Legacy of Grace STO – 75% Tax Credit

One impactful way to support families in accessing quality Christian education is through the Legacy of Grace School Tuition Organization (LOG-STO). This state-approved program allows individuals and businesses to donate funds that assist families with private school tuition while receiving a 75% state tax credit on the donation.

For example, a $5,000 donation to LOG-STO results in a $3,750 state tax credit, directly reducing your state tax liability. Essentially, you have the opportunity to direct a portion of your state tax dollars to support Christian education by making a donation to LOG-STO.

In 2024 LOG-STO can raise up to $559,683 to support families committed to Christian schooling. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to this goal. We ask that you prayerfully consider making a contribution to LOG-STO. The deadline to donate is December 31, 2024.

For more information and to access a donation form, please visit www.logsto.org. Thank you for your support.

Estate Planning

As you consider the estate planning process, it’s important to have the following essential documents in place:

An Up-to-Date Will or Living Trust

Your will is often first prepared when your children are young, ensuring the transfer of property to a surviving spouse and naming a guardian or trustee to care for and protect your children. As your children mature and your needs evolve, it is important to update your will to reflect new circumstances and challenges.

A Living Trust serves a similar purpose to a will but offers additional benefits. It’s a straightforward and flexible way to manage your property, allowing others to act on your behalf should the need arise. If your trust contains all your property, your estate can pass free of probate, simplifying the process for your loved ones.

A Durable Power of Attorney

Through this document, you appoint a person to manage your property if you become incapacitated. A Power of Attorney applies to property that you have not transferred into a Trust. Formal guardianships on your behalf are normally made unnecessary by this action.

A Living Will

Most states now authorize you to make a statement of your desires regarding medical treatment if you become terminally ill. Preferences about the use of “heroic efforts” and artificial life supports are frequently included.

A Health Care Power of Attorney

This document allows you to appoint a person to be your representative in making medical decisions for you at any time you are unable to make them yourself.
