Monetary Gifts

Gifts of cash and checks are the easiest and most common method of supporting Joliet Catholic Academy. Gifts of cash are fully deductible up to a maximum of 50% of your adjusted gross income. For example, if your adjusted gross income for this year is $60,000 up to $30,000 of charitable gifts may be deducted this year. Any excess can generally be carried forward and deducted over as many as five subsequent years. Donations are deductible as allowable by law. Contact your financial advisor for further tax information and details.

Not all of the available methods of giving could be included on this site, and not all the tax ramifications of each form of gift could be explained. Check with your financial advisor or attorney for additional information on how these general rules apply to your situation.
