Planned Giving

Planned giving, often called “legacy planning,” enables you to make larger gifts in support of the CSC than you likely ever thought possible.  While some planned gifts can provide you with a lifetime income, others use estate and tax planning techniques to maximize your gift and/or minimize the impact on your estate. Planned gifts typically also provide you or your heirs with tax advantages.

The Roman Catholic Foundation of Eastern Missouri’s mission is to inspire giving and connect donors to Catholic ministries, sustaining the local Church for future generations.
