Rick ’72 and Kim Peters
 |
Bell Society members Rick ’72 and Kim Peters have designed a lasting legacy rooted in their shared values. Their unwavering dedication and generous philanthropic contributions exemplify their commitment to Peddie.
By establishing a planned gift as a named endowed scholarship fund, the couple has expressed their belief that it is critical to afford students the same Peddie experience that Brodrick enjoyed as a student from 1969 to 1972. “It was through the generosity of those who preceded me at Peddie that I was given the extraordinary opportunity to experience Peddie through the arts, athletics, and academics. We believe it is now our turn to do the same for others,” said Peters.
In addition, by supporting The Peddie Fund, Rick and Kim contribute to all facets of the Peddie community—including support for faculty, administrators, and the physical campus. “Peddie cannot be allowed to be a stagnant institution, but it should always strive to foster creativity, curiosity, and endurance. In some small way, we hope to encourage these pursuits through our financial support,” he said.
Referencing the Peddie motto: “We finish our labors to begin them anew.” The Peterses feel that while the labors of many have been finished, it is their turn to begin them anew by contributing to the future vision of all that the Peddie experience can be.
“Participation in the Bell Society can assist in continuing the strong financial foundation created by those who have gone before us. Such an endeavor helps establish a lasting legacy of which we are proud to be a part.”
