Giving Opportunities

 

A one-of-a-kind member-directed granting program.
Unlike any other organization, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans offers a benefit that enhances the charitable giving of its members

We'll help members support certain Lutheran organizations.
A gift to a Lutheran organization enrolled in the GivingPlus® Program can accomplish even more. Through the GivingPlus® Program, a member's financial gift will be supplemented by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.

Thrivent Financial adds to our members' donations

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans members (benefit and associate) age 16 and older are eligible to participate in the GivingPlus® program. Thrivent Financial has earmarked $24 million for the GivingPlus® program. Using those funds, we will contribute $1 for every $2 donated by members to an enrolled Lutheran organization.

  • Members can donate to any eligible and enrolled organization they choose.
  • Members can donate to as many eligible and enrolled organizations as they choose, but Thrivent Financial will only provide supplemental dollars to two organizations per year.
  • Thrivent Financial will supplement $1 for every $2 donated by members up to a $300 maximum supplement to each organization.
  • Donations can be for any amount up to $600 (or more).
  • Members can make multiple donations (i.e. monthly, quarterly, etc.) to the same organization in a given year and have the supplemental dollars provided when the paperwork is received and processed, however the donations will only be supplemented up to the $300 maximum supplement.

A monetary gift of cash, check or money order will be supplemented by Thrivent Financial. Stock or mutual fund share transfers are also eligible.
