The Seton Society recognizes individuals who, through planned and estate gifts, have made a significant commitment to Delone Catholic High School. The Society shows Delone Catholic’s eternal gratitude to those whose philanthropic support ensures that future generations will graduate as “Doers of the Word”.

As the founder of the concept and the Patron Saint of Catholic Schools, Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton holds an important place at Delone Catholic – so much so that she has been chosen as the Patroness of Delone Catholic. All who come through the school’s main entrance pass under a statue depicting the first native-born American saint, serving as a reminder of her ability to intercede on behalf of the school’s students, faculty, alumni and friends.

Since its founding, Delone Catholic has been the beneficiary of great support from countless individuals. Members of The Society create a legacy that extends their generosity into the future with the confidence that the assets they have created during their lifetime will continue to support work they find meaningful. Often, this can be done with little or no current financial impact to the individual while allowing them to have a profound impact on countless lives.

The first members of The Society are those whose generous gifts have been realized through bequests and other planned giving vehicles following their passing. Acknowledging that this list is likely incomplete, we thank them for their great belief in Delone Catholic and pray that these good works have gone with them.

We would also like to acknowledge others who have made this same commitment to Delone Catholic and ensure that we clearly understand your wishes and intentions. If you have included Delone Catholic in your estate plans or would like to discuss how you can, please contact Eric T. Lawrence ’98, Director of Advancement, at 717-637-5969, Ext. 201 or elawrence@delonecatholic.org for more information.
