Leaving a Legacy

By Katie Wyatt Reynolds ’02

Like many of us, the years spent under the oaks on Bayshore Boulevard were some of the most poignant in my life. While I appreciated unique and impactful experiences as much as I could at that age, it took time and maturity to realize how much the teachings and ways of the Academy of the Holy Names were woven into my life. This reason — realized from pure gratitude — is why I chose to include the Academy as a beneficiary of my estate.

Just as the Sisters of the Holy Names’ charism empowers students to develop and share their gifts as Jesus did, I encourage my classmates and fellow alumni to join me in giving back to the school that gave us so much. My sincerest hope is that in this spirit of philanthropy, we will ensure that many young men and women receive with the same opportunity “to be, rather than to seem” on our beautiful campus. Making this this decision for the future is a gift that everyone can afford.

Being a part of the Holy Names Legacy Society means that you have included the Academy in your financial, philanthropic and end-of-life plans. You can simply add the Academy as a retirement account or life insurance policy beneficiary, like I did. You can also provide a specific percentage or a lump sum in your trust, will, or official estate documents. It is never too early to think about planning for the future or teaching your children the importance of philanthropy by sharing your passions and interests through your life and death.

The Academy established the Holy Names Legacy Society to benefit the school’s future needs by providing financial assistance for students, professional development for faculty and staff, and campus improvements. Please consider joining the Holy Names Legacy Society, along with others who place timeless value on an Academy education.
