Qualifying Gifts

As of July 1, 2023, 445 individuals and couples have made a planned gift commitment to Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, thus qualifying for membership as Wesley Associates. Through their generosity the Wesley Associates ensure that Garrett-Evangelical will continue to be a strong and vital educational institution.

Garrett-Evangelical was founded with a planned gift from Eliza Garrett in 1853, and planned gifts have built much of the seminary's current endowment. Garrett-Evangelical is deeply grateful for these visionary leaders.
