Planned Giving

Supporting Catholic Charities for years to come

What is Planned Giving?

Planned giving is a donor’s intent to contribute a major gift to an organization, beyond their lifetime. Unlike an annual gift, a planned gift secures the support needed to advance the mission of Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas. The help, hope, and hospitality shown by a donor through planned giving can make a monumental impact for generations to come.

Planned giving is a way to make a charitable gift that is also favorable to you. While its primary purpose is to help the charitable cause of your choice, its secondary purpose may be for you to enjoy the personal financial or family benefits that certain plans can provide to you.
