Bev Davis '62
I decided to make a planned gift to Bryn Mawr a number of years ago, and that decision is even more meaningful to me today than it was then. Originally, naming Bryn Mawr in my will was a way for a cash-poor, would-be donor to make a small acknowledgement of the school, with no impact on my annual budget. It was almost a sentimental gesture. Now, my commitment has new energy, and my gift's potential usefulness to Bryn Mawr has grown. I really feel that I will be helping through my personal contribution to keep Bryn Mawr and its programs vigorous in a new century.
The future of Bryn Mawr is something that is very much top of mind for me, especially as I consider my 50th Bryn Mawr reunion. I see my gift as an expression of hope and faith in the school. When I'm long gone from this world, I'd like Bryn Mawr to still be in it – living and thriving and educating wonderful girls. And, of course, while I'm still here, I'd like to see my fellow alumnae and many others become inspired to make a planned gift and to join the rolls of the Ex Solo Ad Solem Society.
