Giving Through Your Will or Living Trust

You want to leave money to Central Catholic High School Foundation in your will. You also want the flexibility to change your will in the event that life circumstances change. You can do both.

In as little as one sentence*, you can complete your gift. This type of donation to Central Catholic High School Foundation in your will or living trust helps ensure that we continue our mission for years to come.

*"I give to Central Catholic High School Foundation, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 200 South Carpenter Road, Modesto, CA 95351, or its successor thereto, ______________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted use and purpose."
Meet Ismail and Farah. When they got married and created a will, they included a $75,000 gift to Central Catholic High School Foundation. As the family grew to include three children, Ismail and Farah decided to revise their gift to ensure their children's future financial security.

They met with their attorney and revised the gift language so that Central Catholic High School Foundation received a percentage of their estate, instead of a specific amount. Ismail and Farah now rest easy knowing their plans will provide for the people and charitable work they love.
