The Charles Carpenter Tillinghast Society
Provides a Perpetual Connection to Horace Mann
The hallmark of a Horace Mann
education has always been its symbiotic
nature. From its early days as
a prestigious lab school of Columbia
University’s Teachers College, through
the decades when a coterie of creative
and caring teachers connected
academic instruction with personal
guidance, to today, the relationship of
members of the Horace Mann School community to their School is
one of exchange. Teachers and students stimulate one another in
turn; parents, grandparents and friends find inspiration in the spirit
of academic excellence, intellectual pursuit, and consideration for
community they have long experienced here.
The Charles Carpenter Tillinghast Society is another expression
of that symbiosis. Founded in 1990 to honor the memory of
Horace Mann’s second Head of School, Charles Tillinghast, the
Society recognizes the generosity of those individuals who have
made provisions for their School in their estate plans or have made
a planned gift to Horace Mann. This support ensures the continued
excellence of Horace Mann School in the future. In turn, donors
who elect to give to their School through such planned-giving
possibilities as designating Horace Mann as a beneficiary in a will
or trust, transferring retirement assets to the School, or making
meaningful gifts of personal property, benefit by receiving immediate
tax deductions, reducing potential estate taxes, and being able
to determine in advance the amount of desired support.
Most important is experiencing the joy of giving today—giving
that helps Horace Mann fulfill its mission now and in the future.
In the words of trust and estates attorney Herb Nass, Esq. ’77, who
wrote the book Wills of the Rich and Famous, “Being part of The
Tillinghast Society is a way to honor our Alma Mater, and is a testament
to our lifelong connection to Horace Mann.”
“Horace Mann is fortunate to be part of a community committed
to the mission of the School and its ongoing development and
continued strength. This relationship is no more apparent than with
the members of The Charles Carpenter Tillinghast Society,” said Dr.
Tom Kelly, Head of School. “Each and every gift made to Horace
Mann is truly appreciated and helps the School continue its tradition
of providing an outstanding education to its students.”
A booklet describing The Tillinghast Society and guiding donors
through the many creative avenues of planned giving that benefit
both recipient and donor is available from The Alumni and Development
Office. $
