Success story

Your denomination's trusted partner

Denominations, congregations, and ministries of all sizes trust FreeWill to help grow and support their ministries including the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship Foundation.

Trusted by the smartest minds in planned & major giving

FreeWill has inspired substantially more bequests, QCDs, and stock gifts even beyond what we see come directly through their tools. The simplicity of their tools has enabled us to confidently put non-cash giving options in front of our donors on a regular basis and make sure they're all aware of how they can maximize their impact.

FreeWill allows us to say, ‘if you don’t have a Will, then here is the way you can create one at no cost.’ Then, we can follow up with the ask to consider making a provision. Measuring the success of our program has been huge. We love the marketing materials from FreeWill, so we don’t reinvent the wheel each time.

Our FreeWill strategist has a faith-based background, so he’s great at providing us with exactly what we need for our fundraising campaigns soliciting bequests, stocks, and QCDs. Using the content and resources FreeWill produces saves us so much time.

FreeWill provided what I was looking for by reaching the younger generation. We use it in all of our marketing materials because it’s just easy. It’s reaching a community that we haven’t been able to reach before.

FreeWill has been a terrific valued partner in our planned giving efforts. Their simple approach has allowed us to reach an entirely different group of prospects. Adding FreeWill as another tool for outreach has helped our pastors and business managers with opportunities to engage more people in meaningful ways.
