Chalice Keepers
Preserve UUCL Through Planning Giving

Welcome to our Planned Giving Campaign at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Lowcountry (UUCL). We invite you to join us in preserving the spirit of life by including UUCL in your charitable gift and estate planning.

Why Become a Chalice Keeper?
To Help Sustain UUCL Values in the Lowcountry

By becoming a Chalice Keeper, you contribute to sustaining our UU values and the liberal ministry of our beloved Congregation well into the future. Your planned gift can help support major expenses, such as property improvements or special projects, ensuring the long-term sustainability of our vibrant liberal religious presence in Bluffton, Hilton Head Island, and the surrounding areas.

Ways To Give

Your Giving Makes a World of Difference

Consider supporting UUCL's Planned Giving Campaign through various means: Bequests allow you to designate a specific amount, percentage, or assets from your estate. Securities enable you to maximize your contribution by avoiding capital gains taxes. Transfer pre-tax Retirement Assets to ensure UUCL receives the full value. Name UUCL as a beneficiary in your Life Insurance policy, and explore Gift Annuities and Charitable Remainder Trusts for additional legacy options.
