Trinity on the Hill established a Foundation in 2012 to provide opportunities for members and friends to leave a legacy that will perpetuate the church’s ministries and programs through donations, bequests and planned giving.
To date, the Foundation and associated Endowments have funded over $900,000 in projects, including $600,000 for campus beautification and preservation, $300,000 for music ministries, and 55 college scholarships.
