What is Simply Giving?
Simply Giving® is a no-cost electronic funds transfer (EFT) program that
Thrivent Financial for Lutherans offers to Lutheran congregations, educational institutions,
social ministries, campus ministries and other Lutheran institutions.
Simply Giving® benefits you and our congregation. You’ll enjoy extra peace
of mind knowing that your commitment to good stewardship is activated into an ongoing,
generous response. For the congregation, Simply Giving® means steady, more
reliable revenues throughout the year, which can help achieve our mission, development and
financial goals more efficiently.
Through Simply Giving® your gift is withdrawn from your checking or savings
account and deposited directly into the congregation’s bank account on the same day. It’s
convenient, reliable, safe and confidential.
