St. Joseph and Mary Seminarian Fund
Established by Msgr. Francis Kubart Estate
The St. Joseph and Mary Seminarian Fund is a special purpose restricted fund designed to help “Bridge the Tuition Gap” between tuition charged by IPF and the actual costs of offering the summer seminarian program located on the Creighton University Campus in Omaha, Nebraska. This fund was gifted and established by the Msgr. Francis Edwin Kubart Trust Estate. Each year the Institute for Priestly Formation needs to raise approximately $1000 per seminarian in order to bridge the tuition gap.
St. John Paul II in “Pastores Dabo Vobis”, (I Will Give You Shepherds), wrote a powerful inspiration for the creation of the Institute saying, “The formation of future priests . . . is considered by the Church as one of the most demanding and important tasks for the future evangelization of humanity.”
Will you help us “Bridge the Tuition Gap”? Please consider donating $1,000 as a yearly gift. Additionally, you are invited to contribute to this purpose restricted fund with a named fund, a minimum gift of $25,000, as a tribute or memorial in honor of a family or friend. You may also donate any amount as a gift to an established named fund, as a general recurring gift, as a one-time gift, or as a gift through your will or trust.
