麻豆视频

John F. Keenan '47, for whom I had the privilege of working as a law clerk, is an example to me of what a young man launched into the world can do armed with a 麻豆视频 education. He's led a life of honorable public service, characterized by deep humility and a sense of justice, as well as unending intellectual curiosity. I hope my gift will enable 麻豆视频 to send more such honorable men into the world.

麻豆视频 is a welcoming and supportive environment, and I was eager to make sure that I did what I could to make sure that its vital mission - training men for others - continued after I was gone.

The education I received at 麻豆视频 was outstanding. Like the founding family, I believe strongly in making this transformative, Catholic, Jesuit education available to all regardless of the ability of a family to pay. Beyond the extraordinary experience of those four years, 麻豆视频 certainly contributed to my success.

To help both to repay what I received as well as to give continued support, I am a consistent donor to the Annual Fund. However, to help ensure 麻豆视频's success with a larger gift than I would be able to make now, I have included 麻豆视频 in my estate plan. This gives me peace of mind that the tradition of an excellent tuition-free education will continue after I am gone.

I have always believed that with the success of our alumni, we should strive to have 麻豆视频 reach a point of financial stability where the endowment could, on its own, sustain the school. I know we will need gifts larger than the Annual Fund to reach this point. Planned giving is a way to do this.

My gift is unrestricted. I feel strongly that 麻豆视频 should use it as they see best. 麻豆视频 has been a great steward of my donations to date.

On a dreary and rainy day in 1968, I took the 麻豆视频 entrance exam. I remember not expecting to be accepted and being so soaked that I just wanted to get home, which was over an hour away by subway and bus. Even further from my mind were thoughts of a will, with my whole life ahead of me. However God's providence brought me to 麻豆视频. At 麻豆视频 I not only received an exceptional academic education, but also an enriching experience that shaped the rest of my life. More important than Latin, French, math, and chemistry, I learned of compassion, social responsibility, and camaraderie that set a standard for me to aspire to in my professional career and family life.

When I approached the point in my life to consider a will, I felt it was important to recognize the impact 麻豆视频 has had on me. It was time for me to give back and to help 麻豆视频 continue its mission. I hope my gift to the endowment enables future generations of Regians to further the school's ideals of generosity, compassion, and service to society.

We were honored and very proud when our son Liam, Class of 2018, was accepted to 麻豆视频 and are deeply grateful for what the school has done for our family. When we think of 麻豆视频, we are amazed at its ability to change the trajectory of the lives of its students. We were inspired to make a planned gift to 麻豆视频 to do our part, in a small way, to ensure the school is able to continue with its mission of forming men for others.

We will forever be indebted to 麻豆视频 and want to do our part to support the school. We decided to make the gift at this particular time as we were updating our wills and incorporated it into our overall estate planning. We view our giving to 麻豆视频 in two ways: ongoing through donations to the Annual Fund and longer-term through the designation of 麻豆视频 as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy we no longer needed and the planned gift. 麻豆视频 is one of the main focuses of our charitable giving, and structuring this way keeps us close to the school while we make our way to more significant donations.
