There are several ways by which you can support the work of Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. Donations from our friends help create and sustain our various ministries worldwide.

Our Congregational Mission Support Office channels support to unfunded and under-funded Notre Dame ministries across the globe.

Following is a list of various ways you may be able to contribute:

Cash Gifts
Your gift to the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur will allow you to receive a full charitable income tax deduction if you itemize on your tax returns. Use the link above to make a cash contribution using PayPal.

For alternative methods contact The Congregational Mision Office. (Click here for contact information.)

Matching Gifts
If your employer will match your gifts and you complete whatever forms are necessary, you can benefit the Sisters of Notre Dame two-fold (simply make sure the forms are filled out with the correct organizational titles/addresses as instructed by the office to which you are making the donation).

Securities
If you have stocks that have earned long term capital gains, your gift to the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur will help you avoid a hefty capital gains tax while still benefiting our Congregation.

Remembering the Sisters of Notre Dame in Your Will
As you provide for your loved ones in your will, you can also leave an additional amount for your charitable interests. You can name a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or any remaining assets. If you plan to include the Sisters of Notre Dame in your will, please contact the office to which you wish to leave your gift.

Charitable Gift Annuity
If you are over the age of 55 and would like a guaranteed income for life with no investment responsibilities, a Charitable Gift Annuity with the Sisters of Notre Dame might be the right option for you. Payments to you are based on your age, the date of your gift and a payment to your beneficiary, if you so desire. Contact the office to which you will be donating if you would like to discuss this kind of gift and/or receive a proposal with more details.

Charitable Trust
If your investment advisor suggests that your financial security will be maintained by setting up a trust agreement and you wish to help with the future needs of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, please contact the office of your choice so that we can help you meet your objectives.
