Give the Gift of Grain

By giving grain to the Foundation, you’re planting the seeds of generosity in ways that help our faithful community flourish. The proceeds from your grain directly benefit the funds and/or organizations you specify. Plus, your generosity could come with the following tax benefits:

  • No income tax on donated grain
  • Write off business expenses for raising the donated crop
  • Avoid self-employment tax

If you have any questions about donating your grain, please provide your contact information and a few details about your charitable goals. One of our advisors will contact you to help you realize those goals.

Faith in Action

“I’m retired and I wanted to simplify the way I gave to my church and other charities. The Foundation manages my paperwork and lets me support organizations important to me. Now, I can focus on all the other things I want to do in my retirement.”

Donor Advised Fund

“The Foundation helped me make a lasting gift to my Parish – one that was permanent and self-sustaining rather than a one-time gift.”

Legacy Gift

“My children no longer live in the area – and had no plans to move back. We didn’t want to burden them with selling our property from afar. The Foundation did all the work and increased our annual income.”

Charitable Life Estate

“Now that I’m over 73 years old, I must take distributions from my IRA, which significantly increases my taxable income. The Foundation offers solutions to offset the tax burden and created a lasting, impactful gift.”

Immediate Pass-Through Gifts

“Our children and grandchildren are so important to us. We wanted to give more to them and our church, and the Foundation helped us to preserve wealth for our heirs.”

Testamentary Charitable Trust

“My parents believed that a Catholic education was an important avenue to securing opportunities for our future. We want to reflect the same commitment, so we partnered with the Foundation, who helped us establish a scholarship fund that helps more students be able to attend Catholic School.”

Scholarship

“I wanted to give a gift to my parish now – not after I’m gone. With the Foundation, I get to see the impact my contribution makes.”
