HOW YOU CAN HELP
You can help further the work of the Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of Tucson in may ways.
Invest in Today
Contribute to the Annual Catholic Appeal, every year. The Annual Catholic Appeal is the
largest funding source for the priorities of the Bishop and the means to sustain critical
diocesan-wide ministries and programs that no one parish can maintain.
Invest in the Future
Create a special family fund or endowment at The Catholic Foundation-or contribute
to one of our existing funds. Gifts are invested and the income earned is distributed each
year to the parish, school, agency or program of your choice.
Earn Income for Life
Set up a Charitable Gift Annuity with the Catholic Foundation and receive a fixed
income for life and a tax deduction in the year of the gift. You may direct the charitable
remainder to your parish, school, or any other Catholic agency.
Leave a Catholic Legacy
Make a legacy gift to the Foundation, a parish, school, agency or program through a
bequest in your will, charitable remainder trust or a gift of life insurance, stocks or bonds.
Contribute Your Time and Talent
Bring your experience, skills, and special interests to work for a Foundation committee.
Do you have experience in financial or investment matters, advertising or journalism in
fundraising, or in arranging receptions and special events? Share your talent with the
Foundation. It will be time well spent.
Supporting Our Parishes, Catholic Schools, and Each Other
God has given each of us gifts, graces, talents, and abilities, which are to be shared responsibly and wisely with others. We are also challenged to make our financial gifts from substance, not abundance, and in proportion to our blessings.
