Planning A Gift To Saint Joseph's

The following pages will offer ideas as to how you can be a part, truly a partner, in the shaping and developing of our future through your gifts and support of Saint Joseph's College. Your rewards will be more than the tax savings. There are the personal, emotional, and spiritual rewards of helping others. Helping others creates cherished and tender moments that can't be duplicated in any other way.

There are as many different ways to support Saint Joseph's as there are needs for your support. If you are new to gift planning, perhaps our chart, How Can I ...?, will be helpful.

The following stories share some of the different ways people can become partners with us in changing lives. Take a moment to see how people - perhaps in circumstances similar to yours - have found the means to offer support and in turn enriched their hearts in ways they never imagined.

If you have already included Saint Joseph's College in your estate plans, please let us know by calling us or filling out our estate intention form. We would enjoy the opportunity to thank you and would like to make sure your intentions are carried out properly. In addition, it will also enable us to advise you about any changes in tax law that we spot that may effect the tax efficiency of your gift. If you have not written a will yet, regardless of your charitable intent, please consider this.

Your personal circumstances will determine the best structure for you and we will be glad to answer questions and offer suggestions confidentially. Please call us or e-mail us (see contact page). You may also use the Saint Joseph's Information Request Form to contact us. Financial terms that are highlighted can be clicked on to see additional information.
