Planned Giving

Join Stone’s Legacy Circle by including The Stone Independent School in your estate plan.

Planned Giving creates a meaningful way to support our Mission for generations to come. Through bequests, insurance, real-estate, charitable trusts, or gifts of stock, Stone alumni, families, and friends can help ensure that Stone remains a bold, student-centered, and future-facing school forever.

Planned gifts — large or small — help sustain our commitment to experiential learning, financial accessibility, and innovative education. These legacy gifts allow donors to align their personal values with Stone’s long-term vision, while often providing financial benefits to the donor as well.

Put simply: planned giving is a powerful way to invest in Stone’s future, while honoring the impact it’s had on yours .

These are profound gifts — gifts imbued with meaning and with care. I’m so deeply grateful for your consideration,

Mike Simpson | Head of School
