MERCY...The First Name InPlanned Charitable Gift OpportunitiesMost donors are familiar with making cash donations totheir favorite charities. Many limit their gifts to donations bycash or check from their regular income. However, bymaking an outright gift of appreciated property to a charity,donors may reduce their overall tax bill. It is often morecost-effective to use an asset already owned to make animportant charitable gift.Planned Gift t OpportunitiesA planned gift will ensure that assets are distributed inaccordance with the donor’s wishes and that theeducational mission of Mercy High School will continue forgenerations to come. Some options to consider are asfollows:There are numerous ways to include Mercy High School inplanned charitable giving, either during the donor’s lifetimeor after death.

It allowsdistributions which would otherwise be taxable from IRAsto be excluded from gross income.There are numerous reasons why the new IRA rollovermight appeal to donors:1. It is a simple method of making a year-end gift.2. The charitable distributions count toward minimumdistribution requirements.3. The distribution generates neither taxable income nora tax deduction, so even those who do not itemize theirtax returns receive a benefit.4. The gifts may be made in addition to any othercharitable giving a donor has planned.5. Donors may transfer up to $100,000 per year directlyfrom their IRAs.6. The tax-free rollovers can be ANY amount, up to$100,000 in one year.If you are interested in supporting Mercy High School witha charitable gift from your IRA, please consult yourfinancial advisor. If you have questions, or would like tocoordinate a direct transfer, please call Ingrid Borghoff,development director, (402) 553-9424.17

I was fivemonths pregnant and had a bachelor’s degree inMathematics, but no Nebraska teaching certificate. Itwas August and Sister Brendan needed a Math teacher.She took a big risk in hiring me, and it is that MercySpirit of taking a risk that has kept me close to Mercy. Icome from a long history of Catholic education thatstressed social justice. I see that same emphasis in theMercy order.Very simply, I donate to Mercy High because I believe intheir mission. The negotiated tuition plan makes itpossible for many students to benefit from Catholiceducation who otherwise would have to go to publicschool.

Personally,our family has been blessed to be able to take advantage ofCatholic education at several different high schools. Wesupport Mercy High School because it helps to offer aprivate, Catholic education to many more young womenwho might not otherwise be able to take advantage of afaith-based education. A key component is negotiatedtuition, which analyzes each individual’s ability to contributewith their own resources and then fills in the rest withdonations from the community.We hope that we help to give a young woman an opportunityto participate in single sex education that emphasizes notonly academics, but also faithfulness to the ideals of Jesus.”Mary JewellDirector of Gift PlanningOmaha Community FoundationIn memory of Sr. M.

However, I support Mercybecause it is an institution true to its Christian mission.The Mercy education is founded in the teachings of MotherCatherine McAuley and her calling to serve the poor andeducate young women. Mercy is true to those ideals intheir admissions policies and in the moral and socialeducation they provide. Omaha Mercy is unique in that itoffers unparalleled financial support to those who wouldotherwise be unable to afford a Catholic education.Mercy not only prepares young women who are collegebound, but also those who may not have the academicability to go to college. This mixture of academic ability,along with the fact that Mercy draws from over 50parishes throughout the city, allows students to be exposedto a variety of people who may have different experiencesthan their own. Mercy brings these young women togetherfor the common goal of an excellent education foundedin Catholic values and traditions.”Elizabeth Colaric, J.D.Former Mercy teacherIn memory of Mary LangerJohn & Melanie Smith FechterHelen & Larry SmithIn memory of William ParrHelen & Larry Smith(L to R standing) Patricia Callone-Flynn, ’55, Dr. Michon Rozmajzl,RSM, PhD.

MERCY...The First Name InBeing the “First Name in Omaha Catholic Education” is both an honor and a responsibility.During this Anniversary year, fifty years at our Woolworth location, we have had numerousopportunities to savor our past, celebrate the present, and envision our future. From theunveiling of the history wall to right up to the all-school Reunion in June, every celebrationhas been a milestone in the collective memory of this great school.Mercy is honored in the thousands of young women who, down through the years, havegraced the halls and classrooms of schools in various locations throughout the city ofOmaha. Since 1864, the Sisters of Mercy have been dedicated to the education of Omaha’s young women. Responsive to theneeds of the times, Mercy schools for girls have emerged, grown, merged or closed, as dictated by the needs of God’s people herein Omaha.The needs of today, at the dawning of this new millennium, cry for affordable private, Catholic education. Convinced that “nothingis more important than the careful instruction of women,” the Sisters of Mercy support negotiated tuition and liberal artseducation that embrace all young women desirous of premier Catholic education.In these trying times, when we are surrounded by conflict and violence at home and abroad, the responsibility for the deliveranceof faith-based, academically challenging, affordable education has never been stronger.Mercy High School accepts this responsibility with the assistance and support of the Sisters of Mercy and the countless generouspeople listed in these pages.Our success story is your story. We thank you, even as we revel in the old cliché:“We’re not the best because we are the oldest.Rather, we are the oldest because we are the best!”Sincerely in God’s tender Mercy,Sister Johanna Burnell, RSMPresident30
