Planned Giving

A Wonderful Way to Show Your Support & Appreciation

Making a planned gift is a wonderful way to show your support and appreciation for Our Lady of Mercy School for Young Women and its mission while accommodating your own personal, financial, estate-planning, and philanthropic goals. With smart planning, you may actually increase the size of your estate and/or reduce the tax burden on your heirs. Just as important, you will know that you have made a meaningful contribution to Mercy.
Mercy's Cornerstone Legacy Society honors those who wish to sustain the mission of Our Lady of Mercy School for Young Women through planned and estate gifts, including bequests, beneficiary designations, trusts, and other irrevocable planned gifts.
