This year, <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong> <strong>School</strong> acknowledges with gratitude those committed<br />
donors who have given to the school over consecutive years.<br />
WAYS OF GIVING<br />
A donor can make a restricted donation to a specific area of interest or an unrestricted charitable contribution to <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong><br />
<strong>School</strong> in various ways: <strong>Annual</strong> Fund, Endowed Gifts and the Capital Campaign. Gifts can be planned to express the donor’s<br />
individual interests and to accommodate his or her tax situation.<br />
ANNUAL FUND<br />
Gifts received through the <strong>Annual</strong> Fund are raised from parents, alumni, friends, foundations, and corporations and are utilized<br />
to meet current operating expenses. These important annual contributions help to fund academic programs, student financial<br />
aid, athletics, student clubs and organizations, and building and ground maintenance. The <strong>Annual</strong> Fund helps make up the difference<br />
between tuition and the actual cost of operation.<br />
ENDOWMENT GIFTS<br />
Endowment gifts are placed in a permanent fund that allows only earned income to be spent. The larger the corpus of the endowment,<br />
the more income will be realized by <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong> <strong>School</strong>.<br />
MATCHING GIFTS<br />
Participating companies match contributions given to <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong> <strong>School</strong> by their employees or retirees. The company<br />
matches gifts after the donor sends his or her donation along with the company’s matching gift form. These forms can<br />
be obtained from the human resources offices of companies that offer matching gifts.<br />
PLANNED/DEFFERED GIFTS<br />
Planned or deferred gifts are long-term methods of supporting the school in which gifts used by <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong> <strong>School</strong> is postponed<br />
until a specified future date. An example of a planned gift would be naming the school as a beneficiary in one’s will. This serves<br />
to reduce the size of the taxable portion of an estate and may lower federal estate tax liability. Through a charitable gift annuity, a<br />
donor may contribute cash, appreciated stock or real estate. This annuity will provide you with a guaranteed income for life, reduce<br />
the size of your taxable estate, as well as other tax savings, while at the same time benefiting <strong>Saint</strong> <strong>Louis</strong> <strong>School</strong>. Other forms<br />
of planned giving opportunities include various trusts, life insurance policies, and transfers of residence and personal property.<br />
