Legacy for Laurel
Legacy for Laurel is the program by which Laurel supporters in the present honor its past by planning for the School’s future. Over the years, much of the School's financial stability has stemmed from bequests and other planned gifts. For instance, alumnae and friends have used gift planning to help build Laurel's nearly $50 million endowment.
To maintain this progress, we invite alumnae, parents, parents of alumnae, faculty members, grandparents and friends to join those who have already included Laurel School in their estate plans. Membership begins with the date of your commitment and it never ends. There is no minimum amount or percentage of estate that qualifies you for membership: only your desire to make a perpetual statement of support.

On Dec. 18, 2015, Congress reinstated the IRA Charitable Rollover Provision.

Membership in Legacy for Laurel is extended to all alumnae, parents, faculty and friends who make a provision in their estate plans to benefit the School.
