Welcome to the Baptist Foundation of Alabama’s website. We hope you
find the new design helpful in providing useful
stewardship, estate planning, and planned giving information. The
Foundation was formed in 1940 to serve as the trust agency for the
Alabama Baptist Convention. Since those early days, the Foundation
now manages over $230 million in assets for individuals, churches,
and Baptist entities.
In January 2005, The Foundation launched a major new
initiative to partner with the local church in providing information
and opportunities for teaching stewardship
of estate assets. Since that time, more than $138 million in assets
have been planned for ministry with more than 75% designated for the
local church. When God’s people understand that planning their estate
is an act of stewardship, they act. We hope the information you find
here will be helpful as you plan your estate or as your
church decides to add this important avenue of stewardship training
to the church's educational ministry. Please feel free to give us a call or email
