Endowment Fund

Investing in the future of our parish.

The St. Noel Endowment Fund is an investment in the enrichment and well-being of the St. Noel Community. The Fund supports parish ministries that meet the social, youth, religious and community needs of the Parish. Since 2014, the Fund has granted over $300,000 to support these ministries.

Bequests can be made to the Fund by cash, check or credit card (online giving using WeShare); highly appreciated securities; direct transfer from an IRA (Qualified Charitable Distribution); or naming the Fund as beneficiary of your will, trust or life insurance policy.

The Fund is a 501(c)3 corporation and donations may be tax deductible.

Annually, Board Members determine how earnings from the Fund will be allocated:
