Giving

The Fry Society


Named in honor of Humphrey L.G. Fry, who taught at St. Bernard’s for thirty-six years from 1929 to 1964.  Upon his death in 1968, he left his entire estate of $95,467 to St. Bernard’s.  To put that number in perspective, that gift was more than total annual giving at the time.  Planned giving continues to be an important source of funds for the endowment and can be another tax efficient vehicle for both donors and their heirs.  Members of the Fry Society include many present or former faculty and staff.  Others are Old Boys, past parents, current parents, and friends.

You can make a difference!  In order to join the Fry Society, simply inform the development office that you have made a provision in your will or named the school as a beneficiary in a life income gift or other deferred giving arrangement. 

Anyone who has questions or would like to discuss their plans, please contact Liz Horsmon at (212) 289-2878 ext. 354 or lhorsmon@stbernards.org. 
From an Old Boy, trustee, and past parent on why he and his wife have included St. Bernard’s in their estate planning:
 
“My shared belief with my wife is that one’s early education is the wellspring of all that is to follow, for better or worse, and that our grade schools are the greatest on earth to start an educational journey, which will last through the rest of one's life.”
