The Patience Lauriat Society is an honorary association of individuals whose planned gifts have already been received or will someday accrue to The Cambridge School of Weston. Anyone who notifies CSW that the school is named as the beneficiary of a gift through their estate, or through a planned gift during their lifetime, is automatically enrolled as a member of the Society.
 
The Society is named after Patience Lauriat '46 who, after providing for members of her family, left the remainder of her estate to CSW to create an unrestricted endowment fund. 
 
The Patience Lauriat Society gratefully acknowledges benefactors whose estate gifts to the school help ensure the future of CSW and demonstrate how close the institution was to their hearts. 
 
Members of the Patience Lauriat Society receive certain benefits, which include:
  • Recognition in publications, including the Report on Philanthropy
  • Invitation to an annual event (for members who have made life-income gifts)

Why Become a Patience Lauriat Society Member?

  • Marilyn Kincaid '65

    Pay It Forward

    "I enrolled at CSW in 10th grade and was immediately struck by the diversity of the student body. Since I came from a small town in Vermont, CSW was a big change for me. I continue to benefit from those experiences every day. We need to make the unique ethos that is CSW available to today’s young people, regardless of their ability to pay. Planned Gifts from those able to pay it forward will help ensure that these experiences remain a reality."

    Give Back to CSW's Future

    “CSW defined my life in so many ways that I can never be grateful enough. I wanted to give back to the school into the future. I encourage those who have the capacity to support the school with a Planned Gift. It’s a way to direct your estate to something you care about deeply while preserving your retirement income.”
