Enhancing & Supporting the Ministries of Westwood Lutheran Church
The Westwood Lutheran Memorial Foundation is a non-profit organization 501 (c)(3)
chartered to “Impact people’s lives by enriching and supporting the ministries of Westwood Lutheran Church.”
How You Can Be Involved
The Westwood Foundation enables members, friends, and family of Westwood Lutheran Church to leave legacy gifts that benefit the church’s programming, its mission, and its outreach.
While the church operating budget is focused on operational needs, the Foundation grants create opportunities for the church to expand and venture into new areas of ministry.
Through six areas of interest, donors may specify the focus of their gift to areas that encompass our lives at Westwood and in the community.
