Your Gifts Support Our Parish!
-
A special thanks of deep gratitude to all who continue to support St. Bartholomew with their sacrificial gifts.
By supporting our parish community financially, we nourish our need to give thanks and give back all that God has given to us. St. Bartholomew Catholic Church is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to fullest extent allowable by tax laws.
Tax-Wise Giving Options
Gifts from an IRA – if you are 72 ½ or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA account to St. Bartholomew. This law allows you to transfer any amount up to $100,000 annually directly to a qualified charitable organization without paying income tax on the distribution. The transfer does not generate taxable income or a tax deduction, so you benefit even if you do not itemize your tax deductions. Your gift can satisfy all or part of your required minimum distribution (RMD).
Gifts of Stock - Gifts of appreciated assets such as stock are an excellent way for you to make a charitable gift. Stock may be transferred directly to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles for the benefit of St. Bartholomew. These gifts will not affect your cash flow, and they provide the following tax benefits:- A possible charitable deduction to help you on taxes
- Bypass of federal and state capital gains taxes
- Avoidance of the tax on net investment income
Remembering St. Bartholomew in your will or trust - Leave a lasting legacy to St. Bartholomew. If you are considering St. Bartholomew as a beneficiary in your will or trust, the full legal name of the beneficiary is:
The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Los Angeles,
A Corporation Sole for the benefit of St. Bartholomew Church.

2021 Year-End Donor StatementsA Message to Our Generous Parishioners: In late December 2017, the Internal Revenue Code was amended with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), which will be in effect until 2025 and represents the most significant tax code overhaul in three decades. For most of us, this meant a higher standard deduction that subsequently reduced the share of all households that itemize deductions to approximately 10 percent.
As a result of these changes, we will no longer automatically send Year-End Donor Substantiation Statements. Many area parishes have also adopted this practice of good stewardship of parish resources and funds by reducing stationery, printing, and postage costs. Regardless of the change in tax laws, if you would like to receive a year-end statement, please contact Kathleen Flood at the Parish Office or e-mail her at KFlood@la-archdiocese.org, and she will e-mail a copy of your statement to you. Again, thank you for your continued support and generosity.
“For where your treasure is,
there also will your heart be.”
–Matthew 6:21
