Bequests
Joe: Anna and I believe the University of Saint Joseph is making an impact on its students and on the community at large. That's why support the University with a Founders Circle gift each year.
Anna: But we wanted to do more than just make gifts. Joe and I have been careful and have been able to save enough for retirement. We plan to be generous with family, but we also have the ability to be generous with charity.
Joe: After talking it over, we decided to leave a bequest in each of our wills. Our attorney took the simple language available from the University and included a nice bequest in my will as well as Anna's. We are delighted that we will be helping others through these gifts.
