The Pontefract Society
The Pontefract Society honors all those who have taken the special step of including Pomfret School in their long-term plans through a bequest provision, life-income gift, or other deferred giving arrangement. Members of the Pontefract Society have demonstrated a loyalty, foresight and generosity that will benefit Pomfret and contribute to its excellence for many years to come.
If you have included Pomfret in your estate plans, please contact us and let us know. We would like to recognize and thank you for your generosity by including you in the Pontefract Society where you will be joining over 100 Pomfret alumni, parents and friends who have joined you in planning for Pomfret's future.
Planned gifts of any amount qualify, and membership is purely honorary — there is no obligation. Your inclusion helps set an inspiring example for others who may be considering supporting Pomfret students and faculty through a planned gift.
