The Many Ways to Support Central Catholic By Mary McCarty Pierce ‘65 We have recently completed our civic duty at the ballot box. Now many will take stock of their social responsibilities. The economy is unpredictable, tax laws continue to change, but the need for charitable contributions remains constant - and quality education remains an essential worthy cause. What can you do to help? Let me list the ways! Current Gifts: The Annual Fund and Phone-a-thon allow Central Catholic to meet yearly expenses while striving to maintain a reasonable tuition rate. Unrestricted funds are also used to aid families who desire a Catholic quality education for their children, but need a little help. Gifts of cash are deductible up to 50% of a donor’s adjusted gross income (AGI) and excesses can be carried over for fi ve years. The 360 Club affords membership to those who have the means and blessings to make annual unrestricted gifts of $1,000 or more. This year, those gifts are being used to provide laptop computers to Central Catholic students enhancing their learning in today’s technological world. Gifts of appreciated property, such as long-held stock certifi cates or real estate, offer the donor a double tax benefi t: a deduction of the current value of the gift and the avoidance of any potential capital gains tax. Gifts of personal property such as cars, boats and collections are also welcomed and appreciated. Apart from the ballot box, philanthropy presents the one opportunity the individual has to express his (or her) meaningful choice over the direction in which our society will progress. -George G. Kirstein Class Rings Find Their Owners In the last issue of Scarlet and Gray we ran a story about several CCHS class rings that were found and how we were trying to fi nd their owners. We are happy to report that we matched up two of the rings with their rightful owners because of that story. Ann Zielinski ’86 stopped by Central Catholic to pick up her ring after friends and family told her how they read about her missing ring in the Scarlet and Gray. Income-Producing Gifts: Charitable gift annuities allow donors to transfer gifts, cash, securities, or even real estate to Central Catholic in exchange for a lifetime of quarterly payments. The benefi t amount depends on the value of the gift and the age of the donor. A current tax benefi t is realized and the assets are removed from potential future estate taxes. Charitable remainder trusts are similar to charitable gift annuities except that the payout options are more fl exible. Payments can be received as fi xed amounts (annuity trust) or payments may vary (unitrust). The grantor selects the payout amount or percentage as well as the term of the trust. Charitable lead trusts are similar, except that the income is paid to the charity and the assets are returned to the grantor at the end of the term. Deferred Gifts: A deferred gift is a gift that will be realized by Central Catholic at the time of the donor’s death. Examples include naming Central Catholic as a benefi ciary in your will, trust, life insurance policy, commercial annuity, certifi cate of deposit or retirement plan. Making Central Catholic owner of your annuity or life insurance policy will create current as well as future tax benefi ts. Wealth-replacement plans offer tax benefi ts to your heirs by replacing your taxable bequest (IRA, 401K, etc.) with a tax-free insurance policy. The taxable asset can be placed in an income-producing charitable gift using the income to pay insurance premiums. www.centralcatholicalumni.org Additional giving options include: • Event participation and sponsorship - such as the annual Irish Open and Dinner Auction • Naming privileges - as with Honor Plaza pavers, Gallagher Stadium seats and lockers, and classrooms • Memorial gifts - remembering or honoring a loved one with a one-time gift • Scholarships - $10,000 can create a perpetual scholarship in honor or in memory of whomever you choose • Department chairs - in support of a specifi c department or program For more information on ways that you can support Central Catholic, contact Mary McCarty Pierce at 419-255-2306 ext. 1058 or e-mail mpierce@centralcatholic.org. Please consult your attorney and/or tax consultant about the applicability to your own situation. We also received a call from Meg Ludwikoski ’75 who said the ring that was found on the roof of the store at 2300 Lagrange Street might belong to her mother. We put Meg in touch with the person who had found the ring, and it did indeed belong to her. Meg’s mother is Lucille (Michalak) Ludwikoski ’46 who passed away in December of 2004. Lucille lived a few blocks away from the store, which was an A & P at the time. The ring is now in the hands of the Ludwikoski family, and they are very grateful that someone would take the time to contact CCHS when they found it.
