When her first child was born, Jamie (Johnson) Anderson '03 received a Wee Warrior baby outfit from WLC with a note of congratulations and tips for new parents, including ways to protect her little one's future. She recognized that her alma mater was once again handing her the tools to be a Christian servant leader. So Jamie and her husband, Jason, crossed an item off of the "to-do" list of many parents - drafting a will.
Jamie and Jason's estate plan provides first and foremost for their family. It also honors the institutions that have impacted their lives - their alma maters. Jamie expressed the ease of the process: "I don't understand why more people don't join the Ella Post Legacy Society. This is the easiest way to give to WLC and it doesn't cost you anything right now. I can give back to an organization that did so much for me."
In conversation with Jamie, it is obvious how much WLC means to her. She was a member of the first Warriors cheerleading squad and welcomed campus visitors as part of the Ambassador Club. Her Christian education and the activities she participated in at WLC shaped her life and influenced her career in college admissions and her role as a cheerleading coach.
Given the opportunity, most of us would like to leave a legacy. As supporters of the Warrior Club, Jamie and Jason's annual membership helps make a positive impact on WLC athletics today. Through their planned gift, Jamie and Jason will impact the future of the college.
Like Jamie, you can share your legacy in many different ways that address your family's needs and also benefit WLC. Contact Richard Mannisto ‘94, Ed. D. at 414.443.8788 or richard.mannisto@wlc.edu today to learn more.
