Any discussion about giving begins and ends with values — your personal values and our shared community values. Planned gifts, in particular, require careful thought and conversation over time to fully address the value you place on Dana Hall School.
We invite you to begin the planning process. Consider how Dana Hall School played a role in your personal journey, the legacy you want to impart for its future, and the approaches that might suit your personal needs and philanthropic goals. Then communicate those values with your advisors — familial, legal and financial — and with us. We can help you tailor a thoughtful approach that is consistent with your values.
Join the Helen Temple Cooke Society by remembering Dana Hall School in your estate plan. You will be in the company of other visionaries who have made Dana Hall School a priority and helped to shape the future of this extraordinary educational institution.
