The University of Hartford honored the long-time commitment
of Tom and Suzy Reich to the University’s Department
of Athletics by naming the western portion of the Sports
Center complex, “The Reich Family Pavilion.” The dedication
ceremony was held in April 2004. The Pavilion was
dedicated to the memory of Barbara J. Reich.
“Tom and Suzy have a wonderful track record of making
a difference in the lives of our young people,” said
University President Walter Harrison.
In addition to a $2 million lead gift to the University’s
“Home Field Advantage” Campaign (which supported the
construction of the outdoor athletics complex), the Reich
family’s record of giving has included money for scholarships,
grants, and annual support to various programs in
the Department of Athletics. The Reich Family Athletics
Development Fund, established in memory of Tom’s late
wife, Barbara, provides student-athletes from the University’s
less highly profiled teams with scholarships. This
past year, six student-athletes benefited from the Reich’s
generosity.
“Tom and Suzy also give in ways that can’t be measured
financially - through their time, leadership, personal energy
and support. They are our biggest fans,” said Director of
Athletics Patricia H. Meiser.
