Leaving a Legacy
Elizabeth Ann Seton left a legacy that has continued for more than a century through the spirit of the Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill.
We ask that you consider your own legacy. You can impact our future through planned giving activities:
- You can name the Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill in your will. A charitable bequest can position assets passed on to heirs to take advantage of financial benefits. Options for bequest gifts include giving a percentage or residual of your estate, a specific amount, assets, or personal property.
- You can name the Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill as beneficiary in a new life insurance policy. Tax benefits are dependent on the structure of the policy.
- You can transfer assets to the Sisters of Charity through a life income gift. This primarily is a benefit to donors 50 years of age and older. A life income gift allows you to:
- Have flexibility in managing your retirement, caring for a loved one, meeting the educational expenses of a child or grandchild, and/or planning your estate;
- Increase your income for life;
- Receive a generous charitable contribution deduction during the donated year;
- Avoid capital gains on the appreciation if you continue to contribute stock.
By working with the Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill Office of Institutional Advancement, we can enable you to provide the support you desire.
