Five Smart Ways to Give

(Pssst - they are easy to do!)

Want to make a lasting impact? Supporting the Dominican Sisters of Peace doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are five simple and meaningful ways to give— some may even offer you a tax benefit!

  • Start a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

    A DAF is like a charitable savings account. You contribute when it makes sense for you, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then decide later how to distribute the funds. It’s a flexible way to give while making a big impact!

  • Donate Stock

    Got stocks that have grown in value? Donating them is a smart way to give—you can avoid capital gains taxes while supporting the Sisters’ work. Your gift can even help establish an endowment, providing ongoing support for their ministries.

  • Include the Sisters in Your Will

    A simple way to leave a lasting legacy is by adding the Dominican Sisters of Peace to your will. It’s as easy as including them in your estate plans, ensuring their mission continues for generations. Not sure how? Our team is happy to help!

  • Use Your Life Insurance or 401(k) to Leave a Legacy

    Did you know you can name the Dominican Sisters of Peace as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy or retirement account? It’s a simple form to fill out, and it ensures that your generosity lives on beyond your lifetime.

  • Give Directly from Your IRA (If You’re 70½ or Older!)

    If you’re 70½ or older, you can donate straight from your IRA—tax-free! This is called a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), and it’s a great way to support the Sisters while lowering your taxable income. Win-win!
