Our MissionLearning Never Leaves You—Life Insurance Beneficiary

Greg Schneider '73 and Jane McGroarty Schneider '74
"Learning is the only thrill that will never leave you." Greg '73 and I believe that Lawrence helped instill in us a passion for lifelong learning. This mindset built the foundation to guide us in navigating life's challenges. Through continuous learning we have been fortunate to have rewarding careers, meaningful relationships with our children, family and friends and an enriching marriage.
The Lawrence experience has also enabled us to interact with many intelligent, caring people who have made significant contributions to our world. We are thankful for our Lawrence friends who continue to provide inspiration for us to keep exploring new adventures and new ideas.
In order to help ensure that students for generations to come have the opportunity to learn and grow in a premier liberal arts environment, we have made contributions to the Lawrence Fund since our graduations and we decided to join the Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle by making Lawrence a beneficiary of a life insurance policy. This was easy to do and only took a few minutes filling out a simple form. Once it was complete, we let Lawrence know.
Our hope is that many alumni will "pay it forward" by joining Legacy Circle. We all can be a source of inspiration for students to create lives that matter. Please join us in contributing to the Legacy Circle.
Lawrence-Downer Legacy Circle
