Making the school a better place for our children
And the world a better place through our children
The Annual Fund
The Annual Fund donations are the number one priority of the advancement office as they are unrestricted gifts, which are an important source of operating revenue at Holy Trinity and have an immediate impact on the students’ experience. The Annual Fund addresses the operational gap each year, making up the difference between tuition revenue and the actual cost of educating the children. The Annual Fund drive generally begins during the winter months and continues until the end of the fiscal year, June 30th. Foundations review the percentage of parental as well as alumni support when reviewing a request for funds. We hope that 100% of our families will support our mission and our efforts to provide superior programs for our children. Donations may be gifts of cash, gifts of negotiable securities, or pledged gifts to be paid any time before the end of the fiscal year.
Capital Giving
Capital gifts are raised for a special purpose such as the purchase and renovation of facilities. Capital gifts are above and beyond Annual Fund donations, which address yearly budgeted needs. Capital gifts are solicited and appreciated each year as we strive to expand our current facilities and programs. As we conduct our upcoming space needs analysis and master site plan development, capital gifts will be crucial to realizing our goals.
Matching Gifts
Matching gifts occur when companies match the dollars given by their employees to non-profit groups such as Holy Trinity. Usually, the employee obtains the matching gift form from the human resources department and completes it or sends it to the Advancement Office of Holy Trinity Catholic High School for completion. Matching gifts are a wonderful way to double your contribution to the school.
Planned Giving
Planned giving is a method of supporting the future of Holy Trinity Catholic High School through financial and estate planning. The generosity of alumni, parents, grandparents and friends will enable the school to plan now for future needs and ensure financial stability and a superior education for generations to come. Gifts of securities or life insurance, the creation of charitable remainder trusts and bequests are all vehicles of planned giving, which benefit the school and leave a lasting legacy. Planned giving often offers tax benefits, which can best be explained by a broker or tax advisor.
Please contact the Advancement Office for more information on any form of giving to Holy Trinity Catholic High School.
