Among the many rich and joyful traditions which make Sacred Heart Schools a place unlike any other is the Society of 1876. Its members are forward-thinking people who support the school and its students through a gift in a will, retirement plan or other asset. We are proud of the alumni, parents and friends who choose to entrust their legacy to us. If you ever want to talk about your potential interest in doing something similar, please contact Alexandra Voigt, Director of Development, or Margaret Hughes, Alumni Relations. |
