No parish can do the mission and work that Christ calls each parish to do without the parishioners’ generous giving of their time and financial support.
Parishioners and friends of St. Aidan’s have many opportunities to support our parish mission through their donations and gifts. Whether through the traditional weekly envelope donation, direct gifts and bequests, or by using the convenience of electronic fund transfer, your tax-deductible financial support will be recognized and gratefully appreciated.
ENVELOPES/OFFERTORY
Plan your gift as part of your monthly budget and elect to use weekly envelopes. Email our support staff: [email protected] and request offertory envelopes to be sent to you or call the Parish Office at 516-746-6585
DONATE ONLINE
You can donate on line by clicking on the DONATE button on our wbsite.
WILLS & BEQUESTS
In your estate planning, please consider your church. You can specify a dollar amount or leave a residual portion of your estate after all other distributions are made. Consult your attorney if you are considering this type of gift to your church.
GIFTS OF APPRECIATED STOCK
If you own long-term securities that have appreciated in value, you may prefer to donate those securities rather than cash. In this way, there may be both capital gains tax and income tax benefits. Please contact the rectory business office if you are considering a gift of appreciated stock.
SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIPS
There are many opportunities to support our parish school. In addition to a direct donation, designated for the use of the school, you may also consider supporting Tomorrow’s Hope Foundation (TH). TH provides scholarships to those in financial need. This ensures that a quality education in a Catholic tradition will be available to all. Visit the TH website at: www.tomorrowshopefoundation.org
FRIENDS OF ST. AIDANS
FOSA Fund is a fund by and for the families and friends of St. Aidan School. The purpose of the fund is to keep the dream of Catholic education alive for those in need within our St. Aidan family. These funds are only used for those in need as determined by the Pastor & Principal of St. Aidan School.
