Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish and School Endowment Drive

Dear Parishioners of Our Lady of Mount Carmel,
I am excited to invite you to participate in the first Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish and School Endowment Drive!
With your support, we plan to raise $25,000, and with the dollar-for-dollar matching opportunity with our trusted partners at the Catholic Community Foundation, the total can double to $50,000.
We need your help to take advantage of this generous opportunity. For every contribution made between Jan 18 and Feb. 16, there will be a 100% match up to $25,000. With your help, we can grow our endowments to ensure the sustainability of our beloved community.
There are several convenient ways you can contribute to the endowment funds:
Give cash gifts. Donations of cash, checks, or online contributions are easy. Avoid retirement account taxes. If you are over 70½, you can donate to the endowment from your IRA and avoid distribution taxes.
Donate appreciated property. Receive significant tax benefits by giving stocks, real estate, or other assets.

Leave a gift in your will or trust. Include the endowments in your will or trust to ensure that your legacy supports our community's future, forever.
At no cost to the parish or school, the Catholic Community Foundation ensures our community continues to flourish, regardless of economic or demographic changes. I encourage you to give today and consider working with the Foundation to plan your final earthly gift through a will or trust. Together, we can benefit future generations by planting the seeds for tomorrow's blessings.
Together in Christ, we can achieve greatness.
God bless you,
Fr. Robert Aliunzi
