8th Grade Legacy Gift
The Eighth Grade Legacy Gift is a tradition that provides a meaningful way for our Eighth Grade families to honor their time at Allen-Stevenson, and for our eighth graders to learn about the importance of philanthropy and giving back. This gift supports a specific purpose at the School selected by the students that will benefit future generations of Allen-Stevenson boys. Eighth Grade families are asked to make one meaningful and increased parting gift to A-S that supports both the Annual Fund and the Eighth Grade Legacy Gift.
