Planned Giving Program Saint Francis’ Institutional Advancement program recently introduced a robust, user-friendly planned giving portal (sfhsgiftlegacy.com) to help alumni, parents and friends make meaningful legacy gifts that benefit Saint Francis High School and the donor’s philanthropic objectives with his or her overall estate and financial plan. While not intended to supplant the professional advice of your tax accountant and/or attorney, sfhsgiftlegacy.com furthers planned giving conversations about the many ways to include Saint Francis in your estate or financial planning through one or more planned gifts.
Planned Giving Options: To learn more about each of these giving options, visit sfhsgiftlegacy.com or contact Mike Speckman, director of endowment and planned giving, at mikespeckman@sfhs.com.
