WHAT IS PLANNED GIVING?
Planned Giving is an expression of interest through a carefully
considered gift to the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes for the
program of your choice. All gifts are tax deductible according
to law and may remain confidential by donor choice.
WHAT ARE EXAMPLES OF PLANNED GIFTS?
A planned gift can be a gift made with securities, property,
insurance policies or cash. Or it can be a gift that also pays
you a lifetime income. Planned gifts can be effective tools in
preparing for a future disposal of assets.
PLANNED GIVING IS FLEXIBLE
Choose to give now or plan to give later. Give in a specific
year for tax considerations, when your expenses are much less,
when you no longer need the money or property, or when you
decide to cash in an appreciated asset.
WHAT ARE THE MOST POPULAR FORMS OF PLANNED GIFTS?
Naming the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes in
your will . . .
A revocable trust gives you control over assets while you
live in case you need the money later.
An annuity provides the donor a fixed amount of income each
year and the Cathedral receives
the remaining principal at some future time.
A Unitrust provides the donor a percentage of the trust's
value as determined each year.
Funds left over from a company pension plan, IRA or other
private retirement fund can be designated to the Cathedral.
A memorial fund can be established in a person's name or to
support a valued program or goal
