The Archdiocese of Denver offers another alternative for your Catholic preplanning needs with its numerous services through the Catholic Funeral and Cemetery Services, one of more than 40 ministries funded by the Archbishop\u2019s Catholic Appeal.<\/p>\n
Whether or not you have your preplanning completed, you may also be thinking about the legacy you want to leave behind. The Catholic Foundation is a trusted estate planning resource for members of the Archdiocese.<\/p>\n
They provide numerous products, like donor-advised funds, planned gifts, and endowments, to help you support your parish, ministries and other charities, that mean the most to you.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”100″][image_with_animation image_url=”4178″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]This service was attractive to Walt and Ellyn Coughlin, St. Vincent De Paul parishioners, who set up a donor-advised fund through The Catholic Foundation nearly three years ago.<\/p>\n
The process streamlined the numerous fundraisers they wanted to participate in throughout the year, for instance, to help their parish, for emergency COVID funding and the Archbishop\u2019s Catholic Appeal. Now they make their donations through the fund with a simple grant request.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt not only saves time on paperwork and taxes, it enables us to be more thoughtful about our gifts,\u201d said Walt Coughlin.<\/p>\n
The Catholic Foundation can also help set up and process: wills, planned gifts, endowments, charitable gift annuities, IRA charitable rollovers and gifts of cash, stock or real estate.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”50″][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Funds that are invested and gifted through The Catholic Foundation follow the guidelines of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, so donors have the security of knowing their money will always be invested in a morally responsible way.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Lord calls each of us in our Catholic faith to be good stewards of his blessings,\u201d said Deacon Steve Stemper, The Catholic Foundation CEO and President.<\/p>\n
Deacon Steve also noted \u201cThis is not just a service for the elderly or wealthy. More young families are considering these life-planning services and Church legacies. Every<\/em> family should consider these life-planning services.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Catholic Foundation provides service to all and is a legally separate entity from the Catholic Church and the Archdiocese of Denver.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n
