If you are giving a gift to a specific fund, please include the name of the fund on the memo line.

Donate Stock

Donating stock and mutual fund shares is a great way to support the work of the Catholic Foundation or any of the parishes, Catholic schools or ministries which we serve. Making a gift of securities is simple and offers a number of valuable financial benefits:
  • You can donate appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds.
  • The total value of the stock upon transfer is tax-deductible.
  • There is no obligation to pay any capital gains taxes on the appreciation.
