What is Legacy Builders?

Legacy Builders is a unique opportunity to give to and support the ministry at Peace River Bible Institute as they seek to "train believers to
become disciple-makers who know God, model His character and are able to build into others the life changing principles of God's Word."

By including PRBI in your will or estate planning, you ensure we will be able to continue to provide a quality Bible-centered education in the future.

An estate plan positions you financially while you are alive and also resolves your financial issues at death. Life is not about how much money we make or assets we accumulate, life is about the relationships we build and lives we touch.

 Should I Have An Estate Plan?

A proper estate plan gives you opportunities to give where before it was never possible. An estate plan will help you understand what your lifetime financial needs are and how to create monies never available before, for gifting.

Many times, gifting is possible from monies that would normally be sent to Revenue Canada in the form of taxes. Other gifts through an estate include: investment shares, real estate, life insurance, etc. Through life insurance you can easily create dollars by donating pennies all tax deductible.

Who Can Help Me Get Started?

Begin by talking to your advisor such as a financial consultant or planner, accountant, trust officer, or insurance agent, they will give you the information you need or direct you to the right individual.

Your certified financial consultant or tax accountant will inform you about the tax benefits of estate gifts and help you obtain the maximum tax and legal advantages suitable for your gift.

If you do not have an advisor and need assistance please contact the Development Department of Peace River Bible Institute and we will connect you with a Certified Financial Planner. Your request will be kept confidential and will be without obligation.
