Planned Giving - The Ursula Society

A will is a very important document for you and your loved ones. The foundation of an estate plan, a will is an outline to help you distribute the assets you have worked a lifetime to earn. Without proper planning on your part, the state will determine who will receive your belongings after your death.


Helping the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville

Those organizations and good causes you have assisted during your lifetime will miss that help when you are gone. However, through your will you can continue to be a part of the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville.

Supporting the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville beyond your life. By becoming a member of the Saint Ursula Society, you not only show your generosity by including the Ursuline Sisters in your will, but prove your commitment to partnership in continuing the legacy of Ursuline founder Saint Angela Merici.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Cathy Wachtel, Director of Development at (502) 896-3938.

the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville

The Saint Ursula Society

The Saint Ursula Society was established in 1992 to recognize individuals and couples who help continue the mission of the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville by including the sisters in their estate plans.

The society is named for Saint Ursula who was not only well-beloved in Brescia, Italy, but also had a strong following in Germany in the 16th century.
Saint Ursula was chosen as patroness by Saint Angela Merici when she formalized her followers into a company. Members of her company were the forerunners to the Ursuline Sisters of today.
