Join The 1838 Society

The 1838 Society recognizes individuals who have made a commitment in their estate plan to provide enduring support for The Edmund Rice Christian Brothers and its ministries to future generations.

Blessed Edmund Rice, after a lifetime of devotion that included service as an entrepreneur, husband, father, widower, religious brother, teacher, and founder, carefully organized his Last Will and Testament in 1838 with intentions for the future success of the Order he created. His foresight ensured a solid financial foundation for the Brothers and their ministries. He crafted his Will with an understanding that clear instructions would secure the ongoing progress of the work of the Congregation of Christian Brothers.

The generous planners who are members of the 1838 Society have taken similar action to care for people and institutions dear to them. They have also let us know of their bequest intentions to help support the ongoing fiscal sustainability of the Christian Brothers.

We invite you to join the 1838 Society and these generous individuals by including The Christian Brothers Foundation as you complete your own plans. You may indicate below the ways you currently intend to support the Christian Brothers Foundation.
