Retirement Matching Fund

As Wycliffe missionaries serve around the world, they look to God to supply their financial needs through the gifts of churches and interested friends. We believe God will provide monies for active service and retirement for His people. Recognizing this, Wycliffe Canada has created a new program to help Wycliffe missionaries have enough money for their needs—a retirement matching fund under our Group Retirement Savings Plan. An initial gift of $20,000 was received to start the fund. Smaller contributions were followed by a significant gift from Canada Institute of Linguistics, our key partner in training, as an encouragement to others to give.

Wycliffe members are encouraged to invest in the Group Retirement Savings Plan, which will qualify them to receive a matching amount of up to 50 per cent of their investment of $100 per month.

Interested donors who would like to help Wycliffe missionaries put aside funds for retirement may contribute to this matching fund. You can make a one-time donation or regular donations to ensure the ongoing viability of this program.
