Planned Giving

Catholic High School is deeply grateful to those alumni, parents and friends who have made plans to ensure opportunities for future generations of students carrying on the 100 year legacy of Panthers at 1301 Delasalle Drive. Making a planned gift is a meaningful way to show your support and appreciation for Catholic High School and its mission while aligning with your own personal, financial, estate-planning, and philanthropic goals. With smart planning, you may actually increase the size of your estate and/or reduce the tax burden on your heirs. Just as important, you will know that you have made a meaningful contribution to Catholic High School.

Planned gifts secure the future of Catholic High School. Making such a gift now ensures that future CHS students will have the same opportunities to succeed as do our current students. It’s an investment that goes a long way.

A planned gift made to Catholic High School, like most other gifts, can be restricted or unrestricted. Because of the uncertainty of the school’s future needs, donors often make their bequests unrestricted, in order to allow Catholic High School to utilize the funds where they are most needed. By making a planned gift, you are proactively planning for future students and their success.

Benefits of Making a Planned Gift

In addition to supporting the mission of Catholic High School, a planned gift can provide to you substantial tax advantages, especially on gifts of stocks and real estate. The total income, estate, and capital gains tax savings and the probate expense savings can come close to the amount transferred. The benefits include:

  • An Income Tax Deduction
  • Reduced Capital Gains Taxes
  • Reduced Probate Costs and Estate Taxes
  • Income for Life

Simply by taking advantage of incentives the IRS provides, you and your advisor can craft a gift that fits your needs, as well as the needs of Catholic High School. A planned gift makes it possible for you, your loved ones, and Catholic High School to all benefit.

We want to be sure that we can fulfill your wishes. If you have any questions, please contact: Jenny Minvielle, the CHS Advancement Director, at 337.376.6950, or via email at jennifer.minvielle@chspanthers.com.
