The inside of the card reads, "This Holiday season, a gift to Boys’ Home has been made in your honor." Memorial cards are also available. To order, just return the form above with the total number of cards wanted and specify either honor or memorial cards. This is a good "gift" for everyone on your list!

Planned Giving If you are looking for a way to increase your cash flow, have the security of guaranteed payments and would like to save on taxes, then a charitable gift annuity may be just right for you.
With declining interest rates in
certificates of deposits and savings, it might be a good
time to check into funding a charitable gift annuity that
benefits both you and a favorite charity. (Boys’ Home)
In today’s world, sometimes it is
comforting to be able to count on fixed payments which are
not affected by interest rates and stock prices.
If any of these scenarios echo your
feelings, then contact Janet Lemmer at
540/965-7715 for a discussion about charitable gift
annuities.
Charitable gift annuities can be based
a single life or two life and income from the annuity can be
paid immediately or can be deferred until a later time.
You also will have the satisfaction of
knowing that the gift portion of your annuity will benefit
Boys’ Home.
The Bishop Jett Fund The Bishop Jett Fund was named in honor of the first Bishop on the Boys’ Home Board of Trustees. It has been established to meet the expenses of the religious life program of Boys’ Home. A goal of $2 million is being sought for this Fund. The Religious Life Program will continue to be one of the four cornerstones that define the Boys’ Home mission. We are an outreach of the Episcopal Church and believe that religion helps shape all aspects of a person's life. This Fund will help finance the Boys’ Home Chaplain’s position. The Chaplain's residence can be renovated. Additionally, the fund will provide for the maintenance and upkeep of All Saints' Chapel on our campus. The Fund will help support activities in our Religious Life Program: worship resources, religious education materials, church camps and conferences, Boys' Home Singers, youth group activities and religious awards for Boy Scout Troop # 66. A beautiful Tree of Life has been placed in the lobby of the Administration Building at Boys' Home. This solid oak tree provides a way to recognize the generous donors who support the Bishop Jett Fund at Boys' Home. Boys' Home, Inc. is a residential education facility for boys ages 6 - 18. Since its founding in 1906 by the Rev. G. Floyd Rogers, thousands of boys' lives have been changed. At our heart is a mission to help each boy strive to develop his spiritual, mental, physical and social potentials. Thereby, ultimately becoming a healthy, productive and giving member of society. It is a big challenge to accept, but it's one we've been successful in accomplishing at Boys' Home. The main campus of Boys' Home is located two and one-half miles west of Covington, Virginia. The campus consists of 70 developed acres, along with 1,400 mountainous acres of woods, streams and cliffs where the boys can hike, fish and swim. Boys' Home, Inc. 306 Boys' Home Rd.
