Your Time to Lead
“The overall objective and function of education in America is to prepare people for responsible living in a democracy.”
To Dr. Wooster, the all-important, all-inclusive word in that statement was responsible. The creation of the FHSU Foundation was a tribute to Dr. Wooster’s belief in societal responsibility to education. Through the Wooster Society, donors of planned gifts enact Wooster’s vision.
Membership in the Wooster Society is dependent on whether you have left something to FHSU in your will or trust or have made the university a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, donor-advised fund, or retirement account. There is no specific monetary benchmark associated with the group; however, you must document your gift with the FHSU Foundation office.
