Ways to Give
Giving financial support to continue the mission of Catherine McAuley can make a difference in the lives of young women and society. Gifts of all sizes are appreciated and can be made in a number of ways

• Online Giving via Credit Card- choose a campaign from above and donate. It's safe and secure.
• Checks - please make checks payable to Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School and mail to 3737 W. 99th Street, Chicago, IL  60655. 
• Pledges - gift payments spread over a period of time make giving easier.
• Gifts of Securities or Assets - Under the Internal Revenue Code, gifts of long-term appreciated property can be highly advantageous because allowable deduction is based on the securities' market value at the time the gift is made, not your cost. No tax is imposed on capital gain. 
• In-Kind Donations - such gifts can include equipment, fine arts, books and other collections and supplies that benefit faculty, staff, and students. 
• Memorial and Tribute Gifts - a gift to McAuley in honor, or in memory of an individual can include a scholarship, or dedication of a building or specific room.
• Life Insurance - a gift of whole life insurance can be made by naming the school as the irrevocable owner and beneficiary of the policy. These types of gifts require charitable contributions from the donor to Mother McAuley in the amount of any premiums which may become due.
• Retirement Accounts - Individual Retirement Accounts or company plans may be left to Mother McAuley by naming us as beneficiary.
• Trusts, Wills, and Bequests - you can include Mother McAuley in your will or trust, including living trusts and charitable remainder trusts.
• Matching Gifts - Alumnae and friends can double their gift to Mother McAuley if their employer is a matching gift company. Contact your human resources department.
• Payroll Deduction - Mother McAuley employees may make one-time and continuing contributions to the school via payroll deduction. Please contact Linda Porter.
