What You Can Give - Main Page

Welcome! Thank you for visiting our planned giving resource page. One of Opportunity International's six core values driving our work is stewardship. As you consider how to best steward your wealth, we also commit to being good stewards of the resources generously placed in our care. Every kind of giving is most effective and meaningful when founded on relationships of mutual trust and respect — so we genuinely desire to connect with you and to answer every question you have about the many avenues of planned giving. Please get in touch with us! Greg Roth, our Senior Vice President of Philanthropy, is available at [email protected] or 312-487-5083 and would love to help you explore how you can maximize your impact and leave an enduring legacy.
