Julian Rettger Memorial Fund

Julian’s family has established a special Endowment Fund at Seven Hills School, to be named “Julian’s Fund for Emotional Development”.

This Fund will be used to expand and support Middle School programs for strengthening the emotional health of early adolescent students. Contributions to this Fund will help middle school students gain the understanding and tools they so need when becoming young adults.

His parents have chosen to honor Julian’s memory and life in this way because of the happy, wonderful years he spent at Seven Hills.

They have made an initial gift and pledge of $200,000 toward a five-year, $500,000 goal for the special Endowment Fund. The Seven Hills School strongly supports the purpose of “Julian’s Fund” and will work with Julian’s family to seek other contributions.  If we can reach the goal, Seven Hills has committed to further honor Julian’s memory by naming the school’s library “Julian’s Library.”

If you would like to make a gift to Julian’s Fund and help the family achieve their goal, they would be very grateful. Your contribution will be helping students’ lives now and in the future. Your gift will help serve as a reminder of Julian’s love for reading, writing and education, and will help foster that love in the hearts and minds of many, many children to come.
