Your Gift. Our Future.

Thank you for considering a planned gift to St. Stephen's. The Rt. Rev. John Hines founded St. Stephen's in 1950 to be a school with the highest academic standards that would welcome people from across the socioeconomic spectrum and around the world. Bishop Hines envisioned a school community of courageous, servant-leaders not afraid to speak up or stand out. For nearly seven decades, our students and graduates have lived up to and into his vision with pride. Spartans on our campus and across the globe are broad-minded, innovative thinkers who are not afraid to think outside the box or draw outside the lines – individuals with unique talents and skills who draw strength from their shared convictions and supportive community. Bishop Hines' vision for an exceptional independent school situated in the heart of the Hill Country came to fruition and remains a strong community of idealists and doers today thanks to the great generosity of the full St. Stephen's community. We hope you choose to continue this proud tradition by making a planned gift to the school today.

Planned gifts, which support the school's endowment, provide perpetual financial support to the school, ensuring that St. Stephen's remains vibrant and vital for future generations of Spartans. A healthy endowment is critical to the long-term strength of our school community, as it provides significant interest income used to enrich academic programs and resources, enhance the faculty, and increase student financial aid.
