The Benefits of Planned Giving
Planned giving offers many benefits to you while also allowing you to support St. Anne School’s commitment to Catholic values and academic excellence.
Planned Gifts are created through various financial instruments customized for your specific intentions and financial needs. With the guidance of St. Anne School staff and consultation of your attorney and financial planner, you can identify the planned giving strategies that best suit your needs.

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
