By building the Prep’s endowment through planned gifts, more financial aid may be offered to deserving students, enhanced professional development made available to the faculty, the beauty of Richland’s Proud and Peaceful Glen may be maintained, and the upward trajectory of the academic, athletic, and arts programs may continue. We are grateful to our alumni, parents, grandparents, and friends who have either openly or anonymously made their planned gift intentions known to the school. We welcome you to follow their lead and join the 1959 Society. By planning ahead, they have not only become part of the future advancement of the Prep but have also provided for their loved ones by reducing the exposure to local, state, and federal taxes. If you are constructing your first estate plan or look to update a pre-existing plan when the circumstances of your life change, please think about St. Augustine Prep, where graduates, sons, and grandsons become men and brothers for life.
