The Legacy Society is for alumni, parents and other friends of Brophy who wish to further our mission to educate young men to become Men for Others. You become a Legacy Society member by naming Brophy College Preparatory as a beneficiary of your Will, Life Insurance, Trust or Retirement Plan.
All legacy gifts are placed into the Brophy Endowment where the earnings are used annually to provide financial aid to students with verified need.
Including Brophy College Preparatory in your estate plan is a great way to:
Have a lifetime impact on the next generation of Men for Others;
Inspire future alumni to leave a legacy
Including Brophy in your estate planning ensures that your legacy will live on in our future generations of Jesuit-educated Men for Others.
