There are many great ways to make your gift to the Do Something Beautiful for God campaign. For more detailed information on these methods of giving, visit Catholicplannedgiving.com and click on the How to Give and What to Give tabs. Thank you for your generosity & commitment to Mother Teresa Catholic Church.

Pledge: A three-year pledge allows you to maximize your giving to the campaign by spreading your gift over three years. Your pledge payments can be set up as automatic withdrawals from your bank account or you can make scheduled payments by check.

Gift of Securities: Gifts of securities (stocks, bonds, mutual funds) are a great way to make a gift or pay down your pledge. If you donate an appreciated security, you can avoid paying capital gains taxes. If you would like to make your gift in this manner, please contact Lisa Hebert in the parish office for instructions to assist your advisor on how to deliver the security to the campaign.

Qualified Charitable Distribution from IRA: Normally, a distribution from your IRA is taxed as ordinary income, but a special IRS provision allows those who are 70½ or older, to make a direct gift from your IRA to any qualifying charity, federal tax-free. Your gift counts toward your required minimum distribution (RMD). You can make a gift in any amount up to $105,000 per year to the campaign.

Donor Advised Fund: Many parishioners have contributed to Donor Advised Funds over the years. If you have a Donor Advised Fund, you can make gifts and pledge payments from your fund.

Commodities: This could be a great time to turn bushels of grain, corn, or soybeans into a gift to the campaign. Depending on the circumstances, farmers who make a gift could potentially save on taxes and deduct the cost of production.
