Planned Giving
SJA Foundation Inc.
Leave your legacy for St. Joseph's Academy
SJA FOUNDATION
The SJA Foundation, the nonprofit corporation established to preserve, promote and perpetuate SJA as an outstanding educational institution, is the funding source that ensures the continued excellence of SJA. Gifts in support of the SJA Foundation help deserving students receive tuition assistance while SJA’s financial stability is secured for future generations.
PLANNED GIFTS AND BEQUESTS
Deferred gifts are an option for friends and SJA community members to make an investment in SJA’s future by including SJA in the planning of their estates.
Including the SJA Foundation Inc. in a will allows for a substantial contribution without diminishing assets during one’s lifetime. A gift by bequest to the SJA Foundation is deductible from the estate, and estate tax savings are possible.
- When naming gifts to St. Joseph’s Academy in a will, please use the proper name of the organization – SJA Foundation Inc. If you have already made a planned gift to SJA, please notify the Mission Advancement Office.
- The tax identification number of the SJA Foundation Inc. is 23-7004456.
