All members of the Founders Society are investing in the future of our students at Community Preparatory School. The Society seeks to ensure the future excellence of a Community Prep education through support of the endowment. Once you have completed your estate plan, please let us know so we can appropriately thank you and acknowledge your commitment to Community Prep's future in our annual publications.
There are many ways to support Community Preparatory School’s future that do not affect you and your family during your lifetime. Although including a bequest to Community Prep in your estate plan is one way to leave a legacy, there are other arrangements, similar to bequests, which are simple, straightforward, and accomplish the same goal.

If you have any questions about making a legacy gift or would like more information about planned giving vehicles, please contact Lisa Dantas, Chief Development Officer: ldantas@communityprep.org or (401) 432-7318.
