Giving
When individuals come together to support a shared goal, the community becomes empowered, and the success of collective action is elevated. We want your voice to be heard and your ideas to make a difference.
Your monetary or in-kind donations are greatly appreciated as we move forward to build a modern, accessible, and up-to-date learning facility for our children and teachers.

Alternative Ways To Give
Commodities
When giving a commodity, the donor must transfer the title to St. Mary’s before it is sold. For example, if the donor delivers the commodity (grain) to the elevator, the warehouse or storage receipt must be made out to St. Mary’s.
​
Appreciated Stocks, Bonds & Real Estate
Funding charitable giving with appreciated stocks, bonds and real estate may be advantageous to you and the campaign. In most cases, you will avoid paying any capital gains taxes while receiving a full-value charitable deduction. To claim these benefits, stocks/bonds must be transferred to St. Mary’s rather than selling them and donating the proceeds.
Individual Retirement Account
Money from your Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) can be donated to St. Mary’s. If you have reached an age where you need to make required minimum distributions (RMDs), you can avoid paying taxes by donating your RMDs. To ensure donations meet IRS rules, please work with your financial advisor and/or IRA administrator.
​
Gifts from the Cash Value of Life Insurance
Accumulated cash in insurance policies can be contributed.
​
