Annual Fund pledges should be completed within the fiscal year in which the pledge is made. Major gifts for endowment or capital purposes are often completed in installments over multiple years.

Corporate Matching Gifts
Many corporations will match gifts to educational and religious institutions. Matching gift programs are a great way to double or triple the size of your gift. Please check with your Human Resources Department to determine if a matching gifts program is available at your work place.
Charitable Foundations
A gift made through a foundation will be credited to the donor’s giving record, where appropriate. Please notify the Development Office of any intended gift through a foundation so it can be accurately credited. Contact Lindsey Lopez, Director of Development, at (773) 681-8410.
Planned Gifts
Wills, charitable remainder trusts, and life insurance policies offer the opportunity for leaving a lasting legacy to benefit future Sacred Heart students, while providing the donor with income, tax, and personal benefits. Contact Lindsey Lopez, Director of Development, at (773) 681-8410.
Gift-In-Kind
Fill out the Gift-In-Kind Form to make a donation of goods or services rather than cash or appreciated property. Contact Tim Sarrantonio, Development Associate, at (773) 681-8409 if you have any questions.
Tangible Personal Property
Items that have appreciated in value such as books, works of art, coin collections or antiques may be given as charitable gifts. The charitable deduction depends on appraised value. Gifts of personal property are accepted if they can serve a worthwhile purpose in the life of the Schools. Contact Lindsey Lopez, Director of Development, at (773) 681-8410.
