Holy Spirit Church and Marquette Catholic School have partnered with the Catholic Community Foundation (CCF), located in St. Paul, Minnesota, to provide long-term investment opportunities for donors who desire to help us ensure our future financial stability and growth of the parish and school for future generations.
We recognize that potential donors may not only have different means of giving, but also differing ideas about how they want their funds used. We believe this partnership gives donors a variety of ways to support the future of our church and school:
-
Holy Spirit Endowment
-
Marquette School Endowment
-
Holy Spirit Investment Fund
-
Marquette Investment Fund
Holy Spirit Endowment
The mission of Holy Spirit is to “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations.” Gifts to the Holy Spirit Parish Endowment Fund will help to ensure that the church has the means to accomplish this mission. Gifts are invested for perpetuity and a small percentage of the earnings are available each year to support the general activities of the parish. It is our hope that the endowment will become a sustainable source of income for our parish community.
Marquette School Endowment
Marquette School is more than 100 years old, with a rich history of faith formation and academic excellence and a future mission to train future saints. Like the Holy Spirit Parish Endowment Fund, gifts to the Marquette School Endowment Fund are invested for perpetuity and a small percentage of the earnings are available each year to support the general activities of the school. It is our hope that the endowment will become a sustainable source of income for our school.
Holy Spirit Investment Fund
The Holy Spirit Investment Fund is available for those donors who want to give, but prefer to see their gifts used for more visible and/or tangible results in the present. Funds may be used to support building projects, programs and other needs. Funds are put into investment pools, but they may be withdrawn as
needed to meet the needs of the parish. Examples of how these funds may be used include: sound system, technology, and building improvements such as the sanctuary project.
