Monthly Giving

Monthly giving is a powerful way to provide sustainable, long-term support that your beloved Catholic parish, school, or ministry can count on. As little as $20 per month (67 cents a day) can make a difference for people throughout the Diocese of Great Falls-Billings forever.

To set up a monthly donation, scroll up to the donation form on this page, and click on the “Recurring” tab in the “Choose Your Gift” section. Or, if you prefer, you can visit this link and select the endowment you wish to support from the drop-down list.

Planned Giving

Your support of permanent endowments at the Catholic Foundation of Eastern Montana can qualify you for unique tax and/or lifetime income benefits (especially the hefty 40% Montana Endowment Tax Credit) through what we call “planned gifts.”

Establish a Named (Legacy) Endowment

Donors may create a Named (Legacy) Endowment benefiting the Catholic parish, school, or ministry of their choice. All that’s required to start is a gift of $20,000 or more (or a pledge of $20,000 or more, given within five years of creating the endowment).

This is a beautiful way to pay tribute to a deceased loved one or show future generations of your family what values you hold most dear. If you’re interested in creating a legacy endowment, contact us online or call (406) 315-1765.
