‍Gifts of Stocks or Bonds

‍Distributions from Your Donor Advised Fund
‍Designate gifts from your Donor Advised Fund to the Catholic Education Foundation. Contact your fund administrator for additional details. Please contact Kristin Castle at kcastle@archkck.org for additional assistance.‍‍

‍Gifts from an IRA
‍If you are 72 or older, a donation made directly from your IRA can help you save valuable income tax dollars. Qualified charitable contributions (QCD) of up to $100,000 ($200,000 for married couples) must be made by December 31 each year in order to exclude that amount from taxable income. Please contact Kristin Castle at kcastle@archkck.org to request a sample letter for your fund administrator and to ensure we acknowledge you properly.‍‍

‍Gifts of Real Estate
‍Gifts of real property - real estate, land, vehicles, etc. - can help support the Catholic Education Foundation's mission for years to come. Please contact Kristin Castle at kcastle@archkck.org to discuss the possibility of donating real estate to CEF.‍‍

‍Planned Giving
‍Consider including the Catholic Education Foundation in your estate plans. You will become part of an amazing group of individuals who are dedicated to providing Catholic education for students in need. Planned gift commitments of all sizes are recognized through the CEF Seton Society. Informing us of your estate plans not only supports CEF's future work, but also serves as an inspiration to others and encourages their generosity. We encourage you to contact your estate planning attorney or advisor for further assistance.‍‍

‍Matching Gifts from Employers
‍Many employers sponsor matching gift programs to match charitable contributions and volunteer hours made by their employees. Gifts from employees’ spouses and retirees may also qualify for a match. Search our matching database to see if your employer will double or triple the impact of your gift.‍‍

‍Gifts in Memory or for Special Occasions
‍Celebrate someone special or commemorate a significant occasion — a birth or a birthday, a wedding or a graduation — with a gift to the Catholic Education Foundation. We will send a card acknowledging that you have made a contribution in their honor or tribute.‍‍
