St. Patrick-St. Anthony Parish Legacy Program

The St. Patrick-St. Anthony Parish Legacy Program honors individuals and families who have made a planned gift in their will or estate plan to the Catholic Foundation, to any of its funds, a parish, a Catholic school, a Catholic organization, or the Diocese of Grand Rapids. The Society provides a platform to pray and celebrate together, honor those who came before us, acknowledge these special benefactors before they enter God’s eternal Kingdom, and encourage others to join.

The St. Patrick -- St. Anthony Parish Legacy Fund is welcoming founding members to the St. Patrick-St. Anthony Parish Legacy Program through 2024.
