Ways to Give

Most of our friends find an outright gift of cash is the easiest way to support the Presentation Sisters.  You will receive prompt acknowledgement of your gift for tax purposes.

Memorials and Tribute Gifts

Gifts may be given in memory of a loved one, in someone’s honor or for a special occasion, such as a birthday, anniversary or holiday.  The Development Department will send a note about your gift to the person you are honoring or the honoree’s family.  Gift amounts will be held in confidence.  Please use this form.

Major Gifts

Has a Presentation Sister made a significant impact on your life, or the life of a loved one? If so, you may feel compelled to make a significant investment in the congregation’s ministries through a major gift.  Please call Sr. Mary Byrnes, Director of Mission Advancement at 845-567-0204 x. 104 for more information about making a major gift. 

Kindle the Flame Annual Pledge Program

The Presentation Sisters’ annual fund campaign, Kindle the Flame, assists us in continuing our mission through our ministries and in the lives of our retired sisters and also helps us with our capital expenses.

Kindle the Flame is a pledge program.  Pledges may be paid with a down payment and additional monthly or quarterly payments.  Many of our friends find that pledging enables them to give more generously in balance with other important economic responsibilities. 

Pledge reminders are mailed to donors according to their payment plan.  Any questions about pledging can be addressed to the Development Department at 845-567-0204.  Of course, outright gifts are always accepted and appreciated.
