The 2016 Society- Planned & Estate Gifts

The 2016 Society, celebrating the schools founding year, is a tribute to caring individuals who have remembered Seton Catholic in their estate plans. These members are committed to ensuring that future generations of Knights benefit from the life changing opportunities experienced at Seton Catholic. Members of the 2016 Society recognize a planned gift made today will ensure an exceptional experience for the students of tomorrow. We recognize our 2016 Society members in our annual report and at other special events.

A Planned Gift Option is Possible for Everyone

Regardless of your income level, you can make a significant contribution to Seton Catholic by planning a donation through your:

Planned gifts are created through various financial instruments customized for your specific intentions and financial needs. With the guidance of a Seton Catholic representative and consultation of your attorney and financial planner, you can identify the planned giving strategies that best suit your needs. Your planned gift to Seton can be funded with cash, retirement assets, life insurance, securities, tangible personal property and real estate while providing you and your estate with income and tax advantages including:

Tax savings for the charitable gift value.
Avoiding capital gains taxes on certain securities, retirement accounts and real estate.
Lifetime income for you or your beneficiaries.
Increased income from low-yield assets.
Reduced or eliminated estate taxes.
Directing Your Gift.

After consulting with Executive Director, Robert Cottle, to confirm that the school can accommodate your intent, you can direct how the funds from your planned gift will be used at Seton Catholic. Your gift can be used to support the programs at the school that are most important to you.
