Bequests by Will

There are no limitations on bequest gifts. All charitable bequests are deductible for federal estate tax purposes with no limit on the amount of the deduction. In addition, bequests are generally not subject to state inheritance or estate taxes.

Catholic Foundation
Catholic Foundation Giving offers a meaningful way to support SPIRITUS Ministries through a donor-advised fund or charitable account. This approach allows you to make a gift, let it grow over time, and prayerfully direct support to ministries that matter most to you. Rooted in Catholic values, it’s a simple and flexible way to make a lasting impact for the Church.

Gift of Stocks or Bonds
One of the most tax-efficient ways to make a charitable gift is through a gift of appreciated stock. A transfer can be as simple as a phone call and written confirmation, and may be completed online, by mail, or in person.
Your broker can contact Katherine Foord for specific account transfer information.

Life Insurance or Retirement Account
You can easily name SPIRITUS Ministries as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or retirement plan, such as an IRA, 401(k), or 403(b). Simply complete a beneficiary designation form with your insurance policy provider or with the administrator of your retirement plan. Both can be done at no cost to you.
