Virtual 2020 Herrick Society Celebration

The Herrick Society extends membership to donors who make any size bequest or long-range gift. Whether made through will commitments, life income gifts, charitable trusts, life insurance, retirement plans or other arrangements, planned gifts are essential to the continued growth of Kent State. Each year, we honor our Herrick Society members with an in-person luncheon. This year, to ensure our members’ safety and enjoyment, the luncheon was transformed into a virtual experience.

You can still visit the Herrick Society Virtual Connection webpage to view a video message created just for Herrick members from Kent State University’s Brain Health Research Institute (BHRI) Director Michael Lehman. In this video message, Dr. Lehman talks about BHRI’s commitment to improving our understanding of the healthy brain and using that knowledge to help prevent and treat brain diseases. The webpage also includes a welcome from President Diacon, insightful stories from BHRI students and helpful brain health resources.

We remain committed to staying connected to our members during these uncertain times, and hope you enjoy this virtual experience and take advantage of these valuable and inspiring Kent State messages and resources.
