Gifts-in-Kind

The parents and parishioners of St. Catherine’s continue in their generous donation of their time and talent.  Please consider donating your expertise or services to help St. Catherine’s School.  Some gifts that have been already received include printing, web page design, food and beverage donations, photography and mural design, and equipment for our technology lab.

Endowments

We are pleased to announce an initial funding of a Scholarship Endowment using part of the proceeds from the 2008 Gala Auction.  The goal of this endowment is to give greater financial strength and stability to our school as well as allow Saint Catherine’s to offer tuition support to more families that are in need.  Plans are underway to begin securing additional avenues of generating funds to grow this endowment to reach a balance with adequate income for Saint Catherine's to begin to use the income for scholarships.   

An endowment is a financial gift set aside permanently.  The earnings from the endowment may be used for the operating budget or for a special purpose such as scholarships, financial aid, and professional development or may be designated by the Benefactor for a specific purpose.

Honorariums and Memorials

An Honorarium or Memorial is a financial gift given to honor a family member, friend, or teacher. 

Appreciated Securities

Gifts of securities, mutual funds and stocks are an excellent way to support Catholic education at St. Catherine’s.  Please contact the school Development Director for more information.

G.R.A.C.E. Scholars - NEW! One Step Process!

Grace Children with Catholic Education by redirecting your taxes! A Georgia law passed in 2008 allows tax payers to “redirect” (move your tax payment) to G.R.A.C.E. Scholars, a qualified Student Scholarship Organization.  Donors may designate which school receives the tuition assistance. Scholarships, awarded by the school based on need, are for the “career” of the student.  For more information about how to “redirect” your tax money to support Catholic education at St. Catherine’s visit the GRACE Scholars tab or call Kim Graff 770-419-8601.
