PLANNED GIVING

"Faith is the greatest legacy a man or woman can leave"
-Pope Francis

Your Faith, Your Family, Your Legacy


Members of our Legacy Society have expressed their commitment to

St. Vincent de Paul Regional Seminary (SVDP) by including the seminary in their estate planning. When resources aren’t readily available, but the inspiration to give is, a legacy gift is the perfect means to extend their legacy of faith beyond their lifetime.


As a member of our Legacy Society, you support the good works of SVDP and help ensure that there will always be a priest to lead your family in faith, baptize your children, marry your loved ones, and comfort your sick and dying.


Members are honored each year at a Mass and luncheon on campus, and are also commemorated with their names on our Legacy Wall of Recognition in our Chapel.

Bequests

A bequest is one of the easiest gifts to make. With the help of an advisor, you simply include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to family and/or The Regional Seminary of St. Vincent de Paul in FL, Inc., as part of your estate plan.


A bequest may be made in several ways:

  • A percentage of your estate
  • A gift of a specific dollar amount
  • Gifts of assets like stocks, bonds, insurance, 401K, or real estate


You Can Benefit from a Bequest 

  • Estate tax charitable deduction
  • Lessen tax burden on your family
  • Leave a lasting legacy that directly benefits your faith and generations to come


Making a Bequest of Assets

  • Gifts of Stocks & Bonds

    A gift of your securities, including your stocks or bonds, is an easy way for you to make a gift. By making a gift of your appreciated securities, you can avoid paying capital gains tax that would otherwise be due if you sold these assets.

  • Gifts of Real Estate

    A gift of your real property (such as your home, vacation property, vacant land, farmland or commercial property) can make a great gift. If you own appreciated real property, you can avoid paying capital gains tax by making a gift to us.

  • Gifts of Retirement Assets

    A gift of your retirement assets, such as a gift from your IRA, 401K, 403b, pension or other tax deferred plan, is an excellent way to make a tax free gift for which your estate receives a tax charitable deduction.


  • Gifts of Insurance

    A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a gift to us. If your life insurance policy is no longer needed or will no longer benefit your survivors, consider making St. Vincent’s a beneficiary of your policy.
