Ways to Give to KCHS

Each offers meaningful benefits for donors, their families and the Kearney Catholic High School Foundation. Since everyone's situation is unique, planned gifts vary depending on your individual circumstance. All contacts with the Kearney Catholic High School Foundation are confidential.

Matching Gifts

Many employers will match, double, and sometimes triple their employees contributions to charitable organizations. Please check with your company to see if they participate in a matching gift program.

Life Insurance

By making Kearney Catholic the beneficiary of a life insurance policy, you can create your own planned giving program. When paying your annual premiums, you will receive a charitable deduction while guaranteeing the school a substantial gift in the future.

Life Income Gifts
