Contributions from individuals, foundations and organizations provide the base of support for Moeller High School, and help ensure the highest quality education now and in the future.

There are many ways to assist the school financially – from outright gifts and endowments to securities and bequests.  Whatever method you choose, the Office of Institutional Advancement will make sure that your gifts will not only be put to the best use, but that you or your organization receives the maximum benefits, tax credit and recognition for your generosity.

The Office of Institutional Advancement staff is available to assist you and your professional advisor in planning just the right gift.  Contact us at 513-791-1680 x1311 or by e-mail at sranieri@moeller.org. 

Contributions may be made in the following ways:

Outright Gifts: Most gifts are made through outright contributions. Outright gifts are used to meet the school’s current needs, helping support our mission and are the most popular way to show support for the school. The most common outright gifts come in the form of cash, check, money order, credit card charge, securities, real estate and/or personal property. Your gift is deductible in the year of the gift.

Matching Gifts: Maximize the impact of your gift to Moeller High School with a matching gift. Many companies sponsor programs enabling their employees and retirees to double or triple their personal contributions to private high school education. The process is not complicated. If you are unsure if your employer matches contributions, contact the Institutional Advancement Office or inquire at your place of employment about matching gift options. Your human resources department should have a matching gift form for you to fill out and forward to Moeller High School. Some companies use electronic filing eliminating the need for a matching gift form.

Securities and Stocks: Appreciated securities are an excellent asset to use in making a charitable gift. You can maximize tax savings by receiving an income tax charitable deduction for the fair market value of the appreciated securities and you may avoid capital gains tax. Your broker can electronically transfer stock directly to Moeller High School.  Simply have your broker enact the transfer to:

Bequest: Bequests are planned gifts where a donor may designate a contribution to benefit Moeller High School by including the school in their will. You may arrange for a cash gift or assets gift or property donation. Bequests may be made for a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or even a residual portion.

Simple Gift Annuity: You may designate cash or appreciated assets as a cash annuity. This gift is easy to create and can increase spendable cash, thereby providing substantial tax savings.

Charitable Remainder Trust: Under a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), a donor transfers money or property in trust for the benefit of Moeller High School. The trust makes payments to the donor or to the designated beneficiary/ies for their lives or for a period of years (not to exceed 20 years) designated in the trust agreement. When these payments terminate, the assets in the trust pass to Moeller High School.

Lead Trust: This planned gift provides an immediate income stream to Moeller High School for either a fixed period of years (up to 20) of for the donor’s lifetime. At the end of the period, the principal reverts to the donor or passes to the donor’s heirs. This trust shelters current income while preserving principal for you and your family.
