Faith in Action

The LSS Foundation is forever grateful to the people and community groups that bless the LSS mission work with their gifts of time, talent, and treasure. The collective support of Individuals, families and congregations through the LSS Foundation is far-reaching – from annual program funding and board participation to volunteering and prayers.

Whether or not you know just how you want to invest your gifts – financial and otherwise - through the LSS Foundation, one thing is for certain…you will make an impact on the people served and empowered by LSS to live their best lives.

Each action we take in faith together will emphasize the infinite worth of every individual and a vision of healthy communities filled with people using their God-given gifts to serve.

Financial Support Opportunities

Planned Giving

Several individuals have planned to give to LSS as part of their estate planning or their will. A presentation can be made for your congregation to outline how their final gifts can make a long-lasting impact on communities in need of Christ’s love. Having individuals from your congregation inform LSS of their commitment helps to sustain our work for generations and promotes a spirit of philanthropy and discipleship.

Individual Campaigns

Periodically LSS embarks on a special fundraising campaign for a special need. Partnering congregations have tithed a portion of their own campaign to benefit LSS, or simply felt called to support the theme of the campaign with a special gift.  This allows congregations to be responsive to current needs and make a direct connection for members to a specific cause.

Many of the 800 Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) congregations located throughout Wisconsin and Upper Michigan support LSS.

UNITY Church tithed 10% of their own capital campaign donations to the LSS Aspen Center – a 24/7, 22-bed addiction recovery center for women and men. To date, LSS has received $80,000 from the Waukesha-based ELCA Lutheran congregation.
