Why Give

What Is Your Legacy?

The task of ensuring Sts. Leo-Seton Catholic School’s future rests with those who invest in the school with a vision for tomorrow. Planned giving is a way to leave a lasting legacy of support for the school. There are many vehicles to make a planned gift, all of which provide their own opportunities and advantages for you and Sts. Leo-Seton Catholic School.
Planned gifts secure the future of Sts. Leo-Seton Catholic School. Making such a gift now ensures that future SLS students will have the same opportunities to succeed as do our current students. It’s an investment that goes a long way.
A planned gift made to Sts. Leo-Seton Catholic School, like most other gifts, can be restricted or unrestricted. Because of the uncertainty of the school’s future needs, donors often make their bequests unrestricted, in order to allow Sts. Leo-Seton Catholic School to utilize the funds where they are most needed. By making a planned gift, you are proactively planning for future students and their success.
