“Trinity Episcopal Church has benefitted greatly from our partnership with Church Investment Group over the past several years.
“Working together in an open, collaborative and thoughtful manner, Trinity and CIG have worked with our OCIO to successfully restructure Trinity’s Legacy Fund with the goal of better aligning the Fund’s investment approach and structure with the church’s goals, mission and budgeting processes.
“CIG’s thought leadership and national perspective have been invaluable in helping Trinity frame and implement our goals- and mission-based investment strategies.”
— Trinity Church Indianapolis Legacy Fund Trustee
