St. Patrick Legacy Society
The St. Patrick Legacy Society is established to recognize individuals who notify us that they have made provisions in their estate plans to bequeath assets to St. Patrick Catholic School. Members of the St. Patrick Legacy Society may choose to make bequests through their will, trust, beneficiary designations, or other methods. With your estate gift, you can support the mission of St. Patrick Catholic School for generations to come.
You can arrange for your future gift in your estate plan by including St. Patrick School when you draft or change your will or trust. You may also designate St. Patrick Catholic School as a beneficiary to your 401(k), IRA, or life insurance policy. When you notify us of your designation, we will recognize you as a member of the St. Patrick Legacy Society, either by name or anonymously.
All gifts, large or small, are welcome. We know that individual circumstances vary. We value and appreciate your generosity for the benefit of our school, at whatever level you may choose to give.
