Leaving a planned gift to the school is a very personal decision but one that will make a real difference to young people who benefit from the experience an HSD education. Your gift can include a monetary donation, or a part of your estate, property, works of art, a policy or a trust. Leaving a gift is simple and can either be included in a new will or added as a codicil to an existing will.
It is free from inheritance tax and capital gains tax and we recommend you seek legal advice before making your decision.
If you do decide to leave a legacy please contact the Development Office to let us know your intentions.
You can specify how you would like your funds to be used, or let the School allocate the funds on your behalf. Are you interested in music, art or science? Perhaps you would like to support a certain area or activity. If you are unsure which area to support, you can direct your planned gift to a specific part of the curriculum, co-curriculum, the estate or the School in general (where we will direct your contribution to the area of greatest need).
Whether you would like to establish a fund in your name, or in the name of a loved one, or leave your gift anonymously please complete the form below or reach out to the Development Office who will be more than happy to talk through your gift intention so we are able to honour your wishes.
“My family and I have all benefitted from an HSD education over the years. We had very different abilities and interests but each of us were able to find something that inspired our journey beyond the Pillars. I truly believe that without this influence we would not have had the confidence to pursue our dreams and be where we are today. For this reason, I have chosen to leave a legacy to contribute towards the lives of other families at our school.”
