Other Ways to Give

Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program

The Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC) allows businesses and individuals to direct their Pennsylvania taxes to our students instead of sending those tax dollars to Harrisburg. It is a simple and easy process that will turn the tax dollars you already owe into scholarships and financial aid for our students. When you sign the pledge form to become an EITC participant, your tax dollars make a difference right here in our community. Venango Region Catholic School is dedicated to growing our EITC program with the community’s help so that we can continue serving families that wish to give their children a Catholic education.

For those families and businesses that pay Pennsylvania income taxes and meet program guidelines, we ask that you consider keeping your tax dollars local. By signing the pledge form, the taxes you owe will directly impact our local community and our school by turning those tax dollars into financial aid. The more families we have participating in the program, the better we can assist with financial aid in the coming years.

We have been working closely with RedefinED Advisors LLC and Children’s Tuition Fund, who have helped participants through a simple, one-page pledge form process. For more information, visit www.redefiningeducation.org. If you or anyone you know may be interested in having your taxes benefit Venango Region Catholic School, please reach out by phone to Alyse Maslonik at 814.419.5505 or email Elizabeth Cooke at elizabeth@redefiningeducation.org.

Special Events

Venango Region Catholic School has events throughout the year to welcome partners and community members to celebrate what VRCS has to offer. The Roast Beef Dinner in November, the Lenten Fish Fries and the VC golf outing in July are all ways to mingle with other VRCS supporters and give to the school. The calendar available on this website will keep you informed of these and other special events at Venango Region Catholic School.

Capital Gifts

In addition to regular operating expenses, Venango Region Catholic School must invest in its buildings, grounds and durable goods to continue fulfilling its mission. Your capital gift is a gift restricted by the donor for specific repairs and upgrades to the school facilities and equipment. Capital gifts provide a valuable complement to the school by providing for exceptional investments.

Memorial Gifts

A memorial gift in memory of loved and admired people who have gone before us is an outstanding way to remember the beloved dead and to help Venango Region Catholic School. Your memorial gift can be an unrestricted gift or a restricted capital gift. To make a memorial gift, please contact us.

Gifts in Kind

Venango Region Catholic School will happily accept gifts of property in service to the school. The fair market value of such gifts is tax-deductible as a charitable contribution. The IRS requires appraisal of any gifts in kind with fair market value of $5000 or more. To help arrange a gift in kind, please contact us.

Planned Giving

A planned gift to Venango Region Catholic School helps guarantee that your commitment to VRCS will continue far into the future. In addition to helping the school, a planned gift can also help you manage your own affairs. There are many different ways to establish a planned gift to the school including cash gifts, bequeaths, charitable annuities, trusts, life insurance, the transfer of property and real estate as well as others. Consult with your financial and legal advisors to determine the best way to see your partnership with Venango Region Catholic School endure while meeting the needs of you and your family.
