God Is Calling You To Support His Mission

Saint Joseph Academy depends on the spiritual and temporal gifts of our benefactors. All our TK-12 students pray every day specifically for the intentions of our benefactors. First and foremost, we ask those within and outside our community to pray for the success of the Saint Joseph Academy mission. Our mission is to form young men and women into saints. This mission depends on the fervent prayers of good Christians, both inside and outside our community of staff, parents, and students.


Temporal gifts, especially financial gifts, are also important for the success of the mission of Saint Joseph Academy. We depend on these gifts to provide scholarships and other financial aid to students who merit or need financial assistance.  Our constant hope is that no child is denied a traditional, classical education because of their family’s financial need. Over the last quarter century, SJA has been providing generous need based financial aid to families who cannot afford private school. This is only possible because of the generosity of benefactors like you. Your financial gifts will also help SJA expand our reach so that more students can take advantage of the unique and excellent education we provide.


Please join in the mission of Saint Joseph Academy by offering prayers and generous temporal gifts. In return, hundreds of students will pray daily for your intentions, and God is never outdone in generosity.

Methods of giving

DONORS MAY MAKE  COMMITMENTS  to Saint Joseph Academy in the form of cash, pledges, property, securities, real estate, and planned gifts.


GIFTS FROM CURRENT INCOME

You may deduct a percentage of your adjusted gross income, depending upon your circumstances- the higher the income, the greater the tax savings. Gifts of current income can be spread out over a number of years to take full advantage of tax deductions.


GIFTS OF PROPERTY

Deducting the full market value of your gift on your tax return reduces your personal tax cost. In this way you also avoid payment of capital gains tax on any appreciation in the value of the property.


GIFTS OF STOCK, SECURITIES, OR REAL ESTATE

A gift of stock, securities, or real estate that has increased in value can be one of the most advantageous ways of giving. Gifts of this type allow you the following advantages:

 

  1. You may make a significant gift without affecting your standard of living.
  2. You may avoid paying the sizable income tax on the appreciation of the stock, securities, or real estate that would occur if you sold them.
  3. You may secure a federal income tax deduction.

 

GIFTS FROM BEQUESTS

A bequest to Saint Joseph Academy will allow you to pass along a greater portion of your estate to your heirs because of the current tax savings and future savings on inheritance tax.


GIFTS OF LIFE INSURANCE

If you choose to make the campaign the beneficiary of a life insurance policy, your premium payments are deductable for income tax purposes. A new policy may be taken out in the name of SJA or an existing policy may be given as a gift to the campaign.


CORPORATE MATCHING GIFTS

Contact your employer to see if there is a corporate matching gift program. If so, this could effectively double your own gift.
