Grocery Gift Card Program

You can help reduce the parish debt with no cost to you by purchasing ShopRite and Stop & Shop gift cards. Each time you buy gift cards the parish gets 5% of your purchase. Cards are readily available after Sunday Masses and from the parish office. There also is a network of neighborhood captains that always have cards available. Check the Sunday bulletin to see if there is a neighborhood captain near your home. Grocery cards are a convenient way for you to budget your family food shopping and to extend your tithe to the Church.

Hudson Energy Services guarantees their residential customers a minimum monthly savings of 5% on the gas portion of their Orange & Rockland bill and a savings, as well, on the electricity portion.

Sacred Heart Endowment Fund

Some 10 years ago the Sacred Heart School Parents Committee established an IRS approved, tax exempt Endowment Fund to help defray the costs of operating the school. The dollars donated to this fund are to be held in perpetuity and the income from the investments is paid to the school annually or is added back to the corpus to be reinvested to stem future emergencies.

The Trustees of the fund are the current parent board, the school principal and the church pastor. The board is directed by the terms of the trust and is limited to high quality stocks and bonds in the portfolio.

The success of the endowment fund depends on the parishioners. Some people use the fund as an alternative gifting source while others suggest donations in lieu of flowers for a funeral.

If you would like further information on the Sacred Heart Endowment Fund, or would like to make a donation, please contact Paul Kosara at 783-9714.


Gifting to Sacred Heart Church

In addition to naming Sacred Heart Church in a bequest under your will there are other choices in remembering Sacred Heart Parish that will help carry on the good works you support now as a parishioner into the future. More information can be found at The Legacy Society
