Gifts provided through wills and personal trusts have become an essential part of the financial support of our Church. In fact, the vast majority of future gifts established for and ultimately received by St. Joseph's Church are the result of charitable bequests established in one’s will or personal trust. Such gifts enable a donor to make significant contributions that may not have been possible during their lifetime.
Charitable bequests can take various forms. You may leave a bequest of a specific sum of money, percentage of your estate, or the residual of your estate. If your will is already written, your advisor can add a simple amendment to provide a charitable bequest to St. Joseph's Church.
