Marvin and Cheryl Spychaj: “Christendom is the answer to many challenges young people currently face.”

Gift Plan: IRA Beneficiary Designation

Even amid these uncertain times, Marvin and Cheryl Spychaj are sure of this: they want Christendom College to be financially stable now and far into the future. Naming Christendom College as one of the beneficiaries of their individual retirement account (IRA) assets is a simple way for them to accomplish this goal.

Disturbed by the number of young people leaving the Catholic Church while attending college, Marvin and Cheryl admit they are concerned about the Church’s future. However, they have found hope in Christendom’s mission to educate students in the truth.

“Christendom is the answer to many challenges young people currently face,” shares Marvin. “While we cannot avoid what the world often demands of us, we can live as our faith guides us. Christendom College is giving students the tools to do this.”

By naming Christendom College as a beneficiary of their IRA, the Spychajs are preserving their Catholic heritage by helping educate future Catholic leaders of the Church while still providing for their own needs. Marvin and Cheryl maintain control of the IRA during their lifetimes in case an unforeseen financial need arises. This type of gift will also ensure that their legacy will make a lasting impact on the faith for generations.

“We need to ensure that Christendom exists for present and future generations,” share the Spychajs. “If we can help more students receive such a faithful formation, we’ll have accomplished our goal!”
