Planned Giving

Welcome to Our Planned Giving Website
for Individuals, Parishes, Schools & Institutions

Thank You for visiting. Our goal is to provide useful information about the benefits for you and your family that can result from planned giving. Growing numbers of people are interested in how they and their families can realize income for life from their gifts and assist a parish, school, or other ministry of the Diocese of Kansas City ~ St. Joseph.

We invite you to explore your options. Please check out the various topics shown in the "Quick Links" to the right of this page. We believe that planned giving allows you, your parish, and our diocese to build a faith-filled future for the next generation.
