Charitable giving can seem complex, but at The Catholic Foundation our goal is to work with you and
your advisors to handle issues professionally and allow you to experience the joy and satisfaction
of fulfilling your charitable objectives.
The Foundation's staff will explain how our giving programs can directly benefit you and your
family. We will review all appropriate options with you and your professional advisors to help you:
- Clearly define your charitable objectives and
- Determine which charitable vehicle(s) will help you achieve these goals.
Depending on its nature, your gift may provide you with some or all of the following benefits:
- Current and/or future year income tax deductions,
- Avoidance or elimination of capital gains on appreciated property,
- A steady stream of annual income, some of which may be tax-free and
- Reduction of estate taxes leading to conservation of your estate.
