In honor of Fr. William Hayes, S.J., the Legacy Club will now be known as the Fr. William Hayes, S.J., Legacy Club. This group of individuals who have included Jesuit High School in their estate plans was established by Fr. Hayes in the early 1990s as part of his vision to secure the school's future stability.
Fr. Hayes also spearheaded Jesuit’s groundbreaking move toward coeducation. Together with Dick Gedrose, Sandy Satterberg and many others, he led the effort to open Jesuit’s doors to young women for the first time in the fall of 1993.
This year, Jesuit is celebrating 25 years of coeducation. Past, present and future students are grateful for the opportunity to benefit from a Jesuit education. In order to continue forming young men and women of competence, conscience and compassion, our goal is to add 25 new members to the Fr. William Hayes Legacy Club in 2019. To date we have seven new members.
You can help us reach our goal and ensure a Jesuit experience is possible for future students by including Jesuit in your estate plan. There are significant tax-saving benefits with this kind of giving. Speak with your estate planning attorney or financial advisor about the options available.
Here are some of the benefits of becoming a Fr. William Hayes, S.J., Legacy Club member:
- Annual Green and Gold Pass good for admission to all regular-season Jesuit sporting events
- Invitation to theater parties and complimentary tickets to the spring drama production
- Invitation to the President's Grub and Gratitude event in June
- Acknowledgement on our donor wall in the Stott Gallery
- Commemorative Jesuit High School Legacy Club pin
