Riley Kidd, M.D.
Why I Give

“I give to Baylor because of gratitude for the training I got, pride in the current students and pride in Baylor and what we are doing as an institution. As I was going through my file, I found letters from the college informing me that I was going to get a scholarship. The letter said, ‘As in the past, scholarships are awarded to each recipient without contractual obligation, but with the expectation that the student will contribute to the Scholarship Fund later, when he is well established in his practice.’ That part faded from my memory until I rediscovered this letter. I have some ground to make up, which is why I started supporting the scholarship fund.”

Planned Gifts

Alumni are encouraged to become members of the Jaworski Society by making us aware of estate plans, deferred gifts or bequests that will benefit the College’s future growth and success.

Alumni receive complimentary estate planning services through Thompson & Associates.

Thompson & Associates can help create a blueprint to share with an Estate Planning attorney to execute. This service is confidential and there is no obligation to support Baylor.
