Miss Mitchell Society -- WT's Planned Giving Society
In 2002 Winchester Thurston created the Miss Mitchell Society to thank and recognize the many generous donors whose bequests and planned gifts continue to expand the vision of Dr. Mary A. Graham Mitchell, Head of School from 1902 through 1947. Dr. Mitchell was an educational pioneer, dedicated to instilling a passion for learning and enlarging the sphere of women's experiences.
The central tenet that governed every one of Miss Mitchell's written and unwritten rules, "Think also of the comfort and the rights of others," continues to reverberate in the hearts and minds of alumnae/i as well as serving as the ethical compass for today's students.
Miss Mitchell Society gifts can take the form of bequests, bequest intentions, charitable trusts, life insurance policies, or charitable gift annuities. WT salutes the generosity and support of this very special group of alumnae/i and friends.
We would be delighted to welcome you as a member of the Miss Mitchell Society. Membership requires no minimum except your thoughtfulness. To let us know about your intention to include WT in your estate plans or to discuss ways to do so, please complete and return the Miss Mitchell Society Membership Form or contact us directly.
