Gift Designation Options
Through the creation of endowments for individual parishes, schools and other Catholic agencies, such as Catholic Human Services, the Northern Michigan Catholic Foundation provides a means to generate income to help sustain the long-term strength and viability of these Catholic institutions.
Each endowment is recorded separately and serves only its specific designated purpose. Income from these accounts is distributed semi-annually to the beneficiaries named when the fund is established. Once a fund is established, many donors may contribute to build the fund, or donors may choose to establish separate funds to memorialize or celebrate an event, person or ministry.

Charitable Gift Annuities
A chartibale gift annuity (CGA) is a way to make a gift to a charity, such as the NMCF, and still receive lifetime income payment for yourself or others. The CGA is a simple, contractual agreement between a donor and the NMCF whereby the donor transfers assets to the NMCF in exchange for receiving a fixed annual payment for life.
