annual report

The Heritage Society was established in 1992 to thank those individuals who have provided for Colby-Sawyer's future through a bequest or deferred gift. The college expresses deep gratitude for the foresight and generosity of these benefactors. Alumni and friends join the Heritage Society by informing the college of estate plans that include Colby-Sawyer. Requests for anonymity are honored. New members, or members who made a new contribution to an existing deferred gift in 2009–2010, appear in bold. The symbol ^ denotes a member who has died between July 1, 2009, and June 30, 2010.
