OUR GREAT NEWS!

New Funding:  The PEER Network is proud to announce a grant of $265,000 from the Indianapolis-based Lilly Endowment Inc. to expand its work in assisting PCUSA churches and PCUSA-related not-for-profits to develop and improve their planned giving development programs. 

What Will This Mean?  More tools; better resources; a new staff member in the coming months (see job posting).

An Amazing Legacy:  The Lilly Endowment Inc. was created in 1937 by three members of the Lilly family - J.K. Lilly Sr. and sons J.K. Jr. and Eli.  The Endowment exists to support causes of religion, education and community development.  The founders’ passions are still being lived out long after their lives.  This is what we are all about.  This is a shining example of legacy and how we can all strive to support the mission and ministry of future generations.

Our deepest gratitude to the Lilly Endowment and to all of our financial supporters who made the PEER Network possible!  Check out PresbyterianEndowment.org to see how far we've come and what we offer.
