Whether you are reflecting upon your current goals and life’s accomplishments, your hopes for a personal legacy, or taking steps to create an estate plan that incorporates your values while meeting your family’s current and future financial needs, a legacy gift to Girard College will ensure the greatest impact possible: a transformative difference in the life of a student.

We have three key funding priorities:

  • Ensuring an excellent, college preparatory, academically rigorous education for students in grades 1-12.
  • Fostering a residential and extracurricular program that provides a comprehensive student experience and helps students develop personal growth, lasting friendships, and a sense of belonging.
  • Maintaining and preserving the extraordinary campus of Girard College for students.

Planning a future gift will ensure that a Girard education is available to the scholars of tomorrow.

Your Gift Helps Girard Students

Your legacy gift to Girard helps students like Aliayah, a member of the Class of 2025. Aliayah enrolled at Girard in third grade and is currently at the top of her class academically. She also plays volleyball, is a cheerleader, and sings in the choir. She has participated in programs on campus at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard University and plans to become a lawyer and focus on public service.

“I have realized that Girard taught me independence and provided opportunities to make connections with people and organizations that seemed beyond my reach not that long ago.”

– Aliayah, Class of 2025
