The 1890 Society The 1890 Society for Leadership Giving, formerly called the Founders Association, was established in 1974 to afford special recognition to alumni, parents, and friends who demonstrate their commitment to the School with significant gifts to the endowment as well as to the alumni and parent portions of the Annual Fund. Whether directed to faculty support, financial aid, academic programs, or maintenance of the School’s buildings and grounds, leadership contributions significantly impact the entire Choate Rosemary Hall community. The acknowledgment categories listed on the next pages, named in celebration of individuals important to the School and its history, range in giving levels from $2,500 to more than $50,000, offering donors many options for joining this esteemed society.
