Thank you to all who helped put this virtual reunion together and to those 99 of you who Zoomed in. Thanks to Jodi Fallon Fern and the Smith techies who arranged the Webinar reunion. View our 60th Virtual Reunion here. Our class raised an astounding $6,593,391 five-year total for Smith College. We won the reunion award for having the most Smith Stars, those who have given to The Smith Fund for five consecutive years. Thank you and congratulations! Linda Fisher Smith, our Planned Giving Chair, says we now have 86 members of the Grécourt Society: classmates or their spouses who have mentioned Smith in their wills and estate plans. Included in our class five-year total of $6.5 million was $2,375,865 from 11 classmates who notified Smith of their specific bequest intentions the past five years. Thank you for your generosity. There is no minimum for a gift mentioned in your will to become a member of the Grécourt Society. Just go to smith.plannedgiving.org and indicate that Smith is included in your will or estate plan and become a Grécourt Society member. We look forward to a real reunion on campus in 2025. Let’s all survive this year of the pandemic and keep our sense of humor while we remain home bound!
