Ways to Give
Thank you for helping us make Bold possible!
Online Gifts. You can easily and securely make an online gift to Bishop Feehan. You may make a one-time gift, or choose a recurring gift on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. All major credit cards are accepted.
Venmo. Gifts can be made via Venmo @BishopFeehan1961
Mail or Phone. Checks can be made out to Bishop Feehan High School and sent directly to Bishop Feehan Advancement Office, 70 Holcott Drive, Attleboro, MA 02703. You can also call the Advancement Office at (508) 226-7411.
Pledges. If you would prefer to make a pledge for payment over several months or years, you can do this online or call the Advancement Office at (508) 226-7411.
Designating your Gift
While unrestricted gifts to the Shamrock Fund are very important because they allow greater flexibility and can be used wherever most needed, we also offer the opportunity to dedicate your gift to a distinct fund that matches your passion with our school's priorities. You may decide to direct your gift to benefit a tuition assistance (Mercy Fund), campus ministry (Catholic Identity), extracurriculars (One Feehan) or faculty and staff (Excelsior Fund).
Double (or even triple) your impact
Matching Gifts. This is an excellent way to make your gift go further in support of Feehan. Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions or volunteer hours made by their employees. These gifts provide a significant amount of funding for Bishop Feehan each year, and we encourage all donors to explore this option by clicking here to see if your employer participates.
Recurring Gifts. By committing to a monthly donation, you provide consistent, reliable support that enables us to plan effectively and sustain essential programs year-round. It is a convenient (and often budget friendly) way to set up your gift once and know that you are making a difference without needing to remember to give again.
Recurring gifts can be set up on our secure website by checking the “Make this a recurring gift” check box.
Other Ways to Give
Stocks, Bonds and Mutual Funds. Securities are excellent ways to give, particularly if they have appreciated in value and may also help you avoid capital gains taxes. If you wish to make a gift of this type, email Jessica Symonds at [email protected] or call (508) 226-7411.
DAF (Donor-Advised Fund). A charitable investment account that is set up for the sole purpose of supporting charities close to your heart - like Bishop Feehan. You can contribute cash, stocks, or other assets into the DAF and receive an immediate tax deduction. Please include the Tax ID Number: 86-3894782.
Gifts in Kind. Non-cash gifts of tangible personal property can be used by or sold for the benefit of Bishop Feehan. Bishop Feehan also accepts Gifts In-Kind for annual special events. Please contact [email protected] of you are interested in making this type of gift.
Contributions to Bishop Feehan High School are tax-deductible as it is a public charity under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, with Tax ID Number 86-3894782.
Memorial Gifts and Gifts in Honor
A gift may be given to the Shamrock Fund in memory of a loved one or in honor of a family member, friend, or special teacher. All such gifts are acknowledged to the donor and the honoree, and will be listed in the Annual Report. Please use our online donation form and use the check box to indicate the intention of the gift.
Often at times of grieving, families choose Bishop Feehan as the recipient of “in lieu of flowers” donations with the intentions of honoring a loved one, setting up a scholarship, or making a purchase for the school in a loved one’s name. If you are interested in this type of giving please see the guidelines below. Most importantly, it is our most sincere hope that Bishop Feehan can be a source of support and prayer at these difficult times.
Memorial Giving Guidelines
- Please let our Advancement Office know of your intentions to include Bishop Feehan in your memorial plans. We can provide memorial cards and return envelopes for your services, and we will be sure to capture and report all gifts for acknowledgment and appreciation.
- We recommend using general language (or similar) for obituaries, funeral programs, and services. Leaving the language deliberately general allows the most flexibility for the family to consider favored options for memorials at a later time. We suggest “In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in (the deceased’s) honor to: Bishop Feehan High School, 70 Holcott Drive, Attleboro, MA 02703. Please include the name of (the deceased) on the memo line or with the submitted donation.”
- When they are ready, family members will meet with the Advancement staff to discern the best options for using the donated money to help the school or Bishop Feehan students (present or future) in the deceased's name.
Planned Gifts
Planned gifts help solidify the school's long-term future and can include bequests, life insurance, or an individual’s retirement account. Planned giving is not only a profound way to support our school but also a means by which both our donors and Feehan can benefit financially. Donors that choose legacy giving opportunities at Feehan become members of the Spire Society.
