Ways to Give
Cash Gifts and On-Line Giving
It is easy to give a donation to Ursuline High School. The simplest way to donate is to either mail a donation or click here and give on-line at our safe, secure site.
Many alumni and friends benefit from the monthly giving (or recurring gift) option. By choosing this option, it breaks a larger annual gift into an amount that is more budget-friendly. Win-win for you and UHS!
Donor-Advised Funds
A donor-advised fund (or DAF) is a charitable investment account for the exclusive purpose of supporting charities that are close to your heart ~ like Ursuline High School. It provides tax benefits and allows the donor flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is given to Ursuline.
Gifts of Stock and Appreciated Securities
Ursuline will accept gifts of stock. Donors may use the full value of the security at the time of the donation as a tax deduction thereby avoiding any capital gains. Please notify Carolyn L. Korenic, Director of Alumni and Advancement, at ckorenic@youngstowndiocese.org or (330) 744-4563, ext. 125 of impending stock transfer and the gift designation. Include the stock that you intend to transfer so that we may properly identify gifts. We will provide the DTC number to your broker at that time.
Matching Gifts
Many companies will match gifts to secondary schools. By taking advantage of a matching gift opportunity, you can double the impact of your donation. Check with your company to see if your employer will match your donation.
Qualified Charitable Distributions
Alumni and friends who are 72 or older can transfer up to $100,000 from a traditional Individual Retirement Account (IRA). This Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) counts toward a required minimum distribution. It does not count as taxable income. Check with your financial advisor to investigate if making a QCD to Ursuline would benefit you as well.
Leave a Legacy with a Bequest
Consider leaving Ursuline High School in your will or trust. This is a great way to create a legacy without impacting your current finances. Contact your financial and legal advisor. We can provide sample bequest language to add Ursuline to your will or to amend your will.
As with any gift to Ursuline High School, donors may choose to remain anonymous.
