Our Fall Give to OLG Day goal is to raise over $75,000 to support safety, security, technology, and scholarships at OLG School. We invite you to prayerfully consider a donation. Whether it’s $100, $250, $1,000, or more, your contribution will enhance educational excellence and directly benefit our students and teachers. Let’s make a difference together! Don’t forget about Corporate Matching!

Donate to Our Lady of Grace

 Stewardship is the intentional, grateful and loving response of a Christian disciple – a way of life that recognizes, receives and shares God’s gifts and charisms for the good of all, living the mission of making Jesus Christ known and loved.

Stewardship Giving

Stewardship giving (tithing) funds our mission of making Jesus Christ known and loved by providing programming for faith formation, sacramental preparation, liturgies and all daily operational costs of Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church and School, including grounds, staff, facilities upkeep, maintenance and utilities.

Endowment Giving

Such giving is held and professionally invested permanently with the Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota, and is protected from any liabilities of the parish and Archdiocese.

Our Lady of Grace Parish Endowment

The parish endowment financially benefits the mission of Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church and its religious, charitable and educational ministries.

Our Lady of Grace School Endowment

The school endowment exclusively benefits the mission, programs and operations of Our Lady of Grace School, ensuring that the school remains viable for future generations.

Father Robert T. Cassidy Scholarship Endowment

Fr. Robert T. Cassidy served as pastor of Our Lady of Grace from 1985 to 2002. The Robert T. Cassidy endowment helps Our Lady of Grace offer financial aid to families in need to attend Our Lady of Grace School.

Stock Donation Giving

A gift of appreciated securities may provide you with greater tax advantages than a gift of cash. Donors can make a stock gift by contacting Charles Schwab.

Corporate Matching Gifts

Many organizations and companies match donations made by their current and retired employees to nonprofits. Check this Matching Gift List to find out if your employer matches donations, and maximize the impact of your donation. File your donation via your organization’s donation program and then submit this form below to OLG, so we can track your matching gift.

Donor Advised Fund Giving

A donor advised fund (DAF) works like a charitable checking account. When you make a gift into your fund, you receive an immediate tax deduction. Then, you decide at your own pace where you would like to give. While you are deciding, your fund is invested and grows tax-free. With a donor advised fund at the Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota, you can have peace of mind knowing your gifts are invested in alignment with your Catholic faith. A donor advised fund at CCF may benefit you in a number of ways:

• It is an efficient, consolidated system for managing charitable giving.

• All gifts to your donor advised fund are tax-deductible.

• A donor advised fund can help facilitate tax-efficient giving strategies like “bunching”.

• When you make gifts of appreciated assets, you can avoid paying taxes on the capital gains.

• Simplified tax preparation. At the end of the year, you receive a gift summary – no more chasing down receipts.

• You have the ability to name your fund — or give anonymously — without having to establish a Private Family Foundation.
