Our Mission Moravian Academy nurtures the joyful spirit of each learner and empowers inclusive global citizens to think critically, communicate effectively, lead with integrity, and strive for excellence.
DEAR MORAVIAN ACADEMY COMMUNITY,
I am delighted to introduce this edition of our journal, dedicated to celebrating one component of our Portrait of a Graduate: Collaborative & Confident Communicators At Moravian Academy, we believe that collaboration and communication are the cornerstones of a successful and fulfilling education. Our students gain these crucial skills through both direct instruction and hands-on, applied learning. By working in groups to solve problems and demonstrate their learning, they not only acquire knowledge but also develop an appreciation for the value of collaboration. As they see the tangible improvements in the quality of their decisions and the products they create, their respect for teamwork and collective effort deepens.
This collaborative spirit fosters a sense of community, integrity, and joy among our students. As they engage in teamwork, they become more connected, growth-minded, and compassionate individuals. The sense of accomplishment they feel, both as group members and individual presenters, boosts their confidence in their communication skills. Through these experiences, our students learn to think independently, stand up for their beliefs, and strive to become the best versions of themselves within our nurturing, safe, and inclusive school environment.
In this edition, we are excited to feature several articles that highlight the incredible journey of our students:
• Freshmen Exploring Their Identities: Discover how our ninth graders reflected on diverse topics such as art, nature photography, engineering, and cultural backgrounds on their journey for self-discovery.
• Preschool Learning About Bugs: Our youngest learners are diving into the fascinating world of insects, sparking curiosity and a love for science from an early age.
• Fourth Graders Becoming Entrepreneurs: Learn about our fourth graders’ entrepreneurial spirit as they create their own food trucks, combining creativity, business skills, and teamwork.
You will also learn about our school theme for the 2024-25 academic year –Creators of Community. And, after reading about our amazing students and alumni, you will find the 2023-24 Report of Giving, a comprehensive report on the generosity and support of our community over the past year..
I hope you enjoy reading these stories and seeing firsthand the remarkable achievements of our students. Their journeys are a testament to the power of collaboration and confident communication. Thank you for being an integral part of our Moravian Academy community.
Warm regards,
Stephanie Vasta Director of Marketing & Communications
Students Make Their Mark at Deca 2024
In February, 59 students representing the Moravian Academy Chapter of the Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA) attended the State Conference in Hershey, PA. We had our school in a wide variety of categories ranging from financial literacy events to robust start-up business and franchise business plans, as well as independent marketing campaigns. Six students placed in the top 4 in the entire state of Pennsylvania and went on to represent Moravian Academy’s DECA Chapter in Anaheim, CA, in April at the ICDC Convention.

On Friday, April 26, fourth graders presented their food truck businesses to an enthusiastic audience of students, teachers, administrators, and families. This project, rooted in the social studies curriculum on U.S. regions, turned students into entrepreneurs and state experts.
Through this interdisciplinary unit, students delved into research paper writing, branding, and marketing by creating logos and commercials using Canva, and even composed jingles with Chrome Music Lab. Their journey began with a visit to Lu Taquería, where they gained insights into food truck entrepreneurship.
In science, the “Great Grow Along” program taught them about nutrition and its impact on development, influencing their food truck menus. Math skills were sharpened with lessons on tax and ingredient quantities, supplemented by a trip to Wegmans for price calculations. A visit to the Hershey Story Museum’s Sweet Strategies program enriched their understanding of branding and marketing.
At home, students built 3D models of their food trucks, integrating their campaign elements and showcasing state-specific features. The final presentations demonstrated their comprehensive learning and creative prowess, as students confidently shared their knowledge and hard work.
Who Am I and Who Can I Become?
The Class Of 2024
By Lisa Dubreuil & Kyle Shaughnessy
Immersed in a community that values creativity, curiosity, love, and understanding, our students seek to answer the questions: Who am I and who can I become?
As our seniors finalize their college plans, having become agents of their own learning, we see their futures come into sharper focus, and it becomes most apparent that Moravian Academy achieves its vision. Through faculty mentorship, hard work, and an individualized college search and application process that asks each student to discover a deeper understanding of themselves, students accept the schools that best align with their academic aspirations, career goals, and personal passions.
Emily Cho ’24
With a desire to understand the world around her, Emily seeks to listen to others’ stories, whether through a Comenius Project researching women’s health, serving as a leader of Women’s Awareness Club, or playing on the basketball and soccer teams. A mentor who provides guidance to others, she also seeks feedback to become the best leader she can be. Emily plans to major in government or history, and is headed to Cornell University.
Chelsea Maund ’24
A formidable student, a spirited athlete, a supportive teammate, and a young woman with a can-do attitude, Chelsea hasn’t met a challenge she wasn’t willing to tackle.
Excited by discovering new concepts and ideas, she practices, experiments, and even makes mistakes, always searching for ways to improve her work. The Robotics Team was a wonderful venue for Chelsea to flex her creative technical muscles, and she was willing to step in to learn any job, doing
whatever was necessary to finish the robot build, including encouraging and mentoring younger team members. She heads to University of Rochester where she will pursue mechanical engineering.
Nehemiah (Charm) Vega-Smith ’24
Charm grew up knowing he wanted to impact young people’s lives in some way, and securing a position as a teacher for Summerbridge last summer confirmed for him that this is his calling. More specifically, he will pursue psychology at Howard University, with an ultimate goal of providing support to teenagers with mental health issues. A latecomer to theatre, he wowed audiences with his performance in 12 Angry Jurors, and there is no doubt he will bring this newfound passion with him to college as well.

SC Preschoolers Buzz with Excitement
as They Explore the World of Bugs and Build Phonics Skills
In May, our Preschool friends used their creativity and powers of observation to explore the world of bugs! They began by observing caterpillars, using magnifying glasses to record each stage of the lifecycle, from larva to chrysalis to metamorphosis. They also expressed their discoveries through drawings, paintings, and crafts, depicting various bugs and noting their different parts, from heads and legs to antennae. To further their insect exploration, they used bug flashcards to work on phonics and pronunciation. Each flashcard featured a colorful illustration of a different bug along with its name, and the children practiced sounding out the names, focusing on initial sounds and syllables. The bug flashcards quickly became a favorite tool, helping our young learners connect visual images with the sounds of the words, building a strong foundation for confident communication.
HDC Eighth-Grade Students Take Action at Youth Climate Summit
On April 20th, our eighth-grade team embarked on an inspiring journey of environmental awareness and action at the 5th annual Youth Climate Summit held at the Nurture Nature Center in Easton. The summit featured a thought-provoking keynote address by Dr. Diane Husic, parent of Corey ’13 and Joren ’16, from Moravian University. Her talk on empowering youth engagement in climate action resonated deeply with our students, highlighting the crucial role young people play in addressing both local and global challenges.
After Dr. Husic’s talk, students moved on to the engaging activities at the climate fair. Through a reclaimed art project, students contributed to a striking art piece made from plastic and fishing nets recovered from the Delaware River, turning environmental waste
into a powerful visual statement. Another art piece our eighth-graders helped create used recycled t-shirts beautifully woven together, demonstrating how everyday items can be repurposed creatively.
One of the most significant outcomes of the summit was the further development of our students as collaborative and confident communicators. Through interactions with peers, experts, and community members, they honed their ability to articulate complex climate issues, work together on creative projects, and engage in meaningful discussions about environmental challenges.
We’re excited to see how our eighth-graders will apply their newfound knowledge and enthusiasm for climate action on our campuses.
An Identity Ecosystem Takes Root at the Merle-Smith Campus
By Dr. Catherine Moore
If you find yourself walking around the Merle-Smith Campus in the next few weeks, you may notice a curious and colorful outcropping of mushrooms growing near the Rose Garden. But these mushrooms aren’t just any mushrooms! They are the living embodiment of the stories of the Seniors in the Story and Poetry classes in our Identity Ecosystem project.
For our Identity Ecosystem project, we worked with mixed media fiber artist and MA alumna Mallory Zondag ’12 to design and felt together our own mushrooms that reflect who we are. At the end of our sessions, we combined all of our mushrooms together in our art installation outside, nestled in the nook of two trees off of the walkway down to Couch.
Now, why mushrooms? And why fiber art? It begins with our school history, actually.
Remember our founder, Benigna?
Her grandson was Lewis David de Schweinitz and he was a botanist and mycologist from right here in Bethlehem. Mycology is the study of fungi. De Schweinitz has been called the “Father of American Mycology” and is credited with discovering over 1,000 new species of fungi in America. He wrote several books and articles on the subject and created many watercolors to document and extensively catalog all of the fungi, mosses, ferns, lichens, and flowering plants he came across.
So now you know ’why mushrooms’! And so, ’why fiber art’?
Our school has a rich history with the textile arts, especially at the Moravian Seminary for Girls. Our history of needlework and embroidery has its roots in the early years of our school, where it was considered both a useful domestic skill and a means of artistic expression. Textile work as a part of the art curriculum continued at our school until
the ’50s and ’60s, and resurfaced later when embroidered chair covers were made in commemoration of another school milestone. You can see some of those embroidered chairs, in fact, in the Snyder Conference Room. Our identity ecosystem project turns to the fiber arts, as our school has many times in its past, so that students have the opportunity to express themselves artistically and to understand themselves in an unique way.
With a project that celebrates the power of storytelling both as communication and connection, we weren’t able to do this Identity Ecosystem project alone. Along with Mallory Zondag’s expertise, we called upon another alum, Kareem Rabbat ’16, to help us understand more about the mighty fungal kingdom and the study of mycology. Kareem Rabbat zoomed with our classes to support our project. Currently working in New Mexico for the Indian Health Service as an Environmental Engineer, Kareem is an Eclectic Engineer that is dedicated to creating a future without pollution or waste. Kareem’s Mycology Monday posts on Instagram drew us back to him and his work with the miraculous and marvelous fungal kingdom.
Our final inspiration comes from the book Entangled Life, by British biologist Merlin Sheldrake. We were captivated by Sheldrake’s book as he explores the fascinating world of fungi, revealing their intelligence, impact on ecosystems, and their role in shaping our understanding of life itself. Fungi challenge our set notions of “identity, autonomy, and independence” when they communicate and connect with other living creatures. Sheldrake writes that we may begin to see our lives and even “ourselves emerg[ing] from a complex tangle of relationships only now becoming known.” Our stories we tell each other can do this, too! So, when you see our outcropping of mushrooms on campus, have fun discovering the stories that they are telling!

2024-25 All-School Theme Creators of Community: Rooted in Shared Growth
By Cristina Usino, Director of Belonging and Collective Well-Being
This year, we embark on a wondrous adventure – to become Creators of Community. Imagine our school as a vibrant forest, teeming with life and diverse in its inhabitants. Just as a healthy forest thrives on the profound interconnectedness of its trees, so too will our school flourish when we cultivate a space where each member can bloom.
As renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson reminds us: “When a tree is cut down in the forest, other trees reach out to the victim with their root tips, and send lifesaving sustenance, water, sugar, and other nutrients via the mycelium. This continuous IV drip from neighboring trees can keep the stump alive for decades, and even centuries. And they don’t only do it for their own kind. They do it for the trees of other species. Why? Is it possible that trees can think in longer terms than we do?”
This powerful image captures the essence of a flourishing community. Let’s embody the wisdom of the forest. We are the stewards – the ones who cultivate a space for shared growth and collective well-being. Just as a forest thrives on the unique contributions of every tree, big or small, so too does our school. Each of us, students, staff, and families, holds the potential to be a nurturer of belonging and a champion of connection. Through our daily interactions, we extend our roots of support, creating an environment where everyone feels seen, valued, and empowered to blossom.
Poet Andrea Gibson captures this beautifully: “I was aware that my lifelines are braided with the lifelines of strangers. I was tuned into the knowing that the air I breathe out is the air others breathe in.”
In our school community, our well-being is intertwined. The kindness we offer ripples outward, fostering a sense of connection that nourishes us all.
In the spirit of the forest, where each tree supports its neighbors, can we become a community that offers sustenance to one another? Together, we can become the guardians of a flourishing forest, a vibrant school community where everyone grows and is empowered to bloom.
When Sue Maurer first stepped onto the campus of Moravian Academy in January of 1986, she brought with her a fervent passion for art and an eagerness to share her creative journey with her students. Over the next 38 years, Sue’s dedication to art education transformed the lives of countless students through her dynamic teaching in ceramics, painting, papermaking, and a myriad of other artistic disciplines.
Sue’s journey began in the attic of Snyder before she moved to the beautiful art space in Couch, where she inspired students with her innovative approach to art. Her commitment to her craft extended beyond the classroom. In the summer of 1994, she spent five weeks in Malaysia on a Maron Travel Study Grant. There, she learned the intricate art of making paper from indigenous plants, which she eagerly brought back to her students. This unique experience allowed her to teach her students how to incorporate plant fibers into pulp, creating distinctive designs in handmade paper.
Sue’s wisdom extended beyond art techniques. She once shared profound words on navigating transitions:
“I’d like to recommend when dealing with change, which is inevitable, what soothes me: watching the act of creating through the dancer, actor, painter, potter, printmaker, photographer, poet, sculptor, woodworker,
Celebrating the Legacy of Sue Maurer: Moravian Academy’s Beloved Art Teacher Retires
musician, and singer. Their work has a beginning, middle, and end. Their work is birthed, has life breathed into it and separates from its creator when it is deemed ’done.’”
She continued, “I highly encourage you to take up creating to soothe your soul and assist you in making sense of changes. If that isn’t enticing, I invite you to watch others creating art live, such as glass blowers, jazz musicians, and street portrait painters, in real-time— right before your very eyes. The act of creating is ever changing, yet the stream of artists continues on with the indomitable spirit within each of them: to make.
This truth I depend upon, and it satisfies my soul knowing all will be okay.”
Sue Maurer’s impact on Moravian Academy is immeasurable. She has nurtured the creative talents of hundreds of students, helping them find their artistic voices and fostering a deep appreciation for the arts. As she retires, the school community will greatly miss her vibrant presence and inspiring guidance. However, in her own words, “I am retiring from my position but not from my support of Moravian Academy!”
We wish Sue Maurer all the best in her well-deserved retirement and thank her for the indelible mark she has left on Moravian Academy.

Historic Moravian Bethlehem Designated as UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bringing Global Recognition and Exciting Opportunities to Moravian Academy
Designated as UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bringing Global Recognition and Exciting Opportunities to Moravian Academy
After two decades of passion, dedication, and steadfast focus led by Charlene Donchez Mowers ’64P, former President of the Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites, the Historic Moravian Bethlehem National Historic Landmark District has officially been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This momentous honor was granted in Delhi, India, marking a significant milestone in our community’s history.
As part of a transnational serial designation titled “Moravian Church Settlements,” our site joins four historic Moravian Church settlements: Gracehill, Northern Ireland/UK; Herrnhut, Germany; and Christiansfeld, Denmark. This achievement is the U.S. government’s first multi-country designation!
To put this into perspective, there are only 24 World Heritage Sites in the entire United States. Until now, Pennsylvania was home to just two: Independence Hall in Philadelphia and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater outside of Pittsburgh.
The benefits of being declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site are immense, including increased tourism, access to funding for protection and conservation, and global recognition.
For Moravian Academy, this designation means:
• More Visitors: We anticipate an increase in visitors eager to explore our historic surroundings.
• Heightened Security: We are pleased to announce that Cardinal Point Security Group will be our new security provider across all three campuses.
• Educational Opportunities: Dr. Abby Mahone, Director of the Historic Downtown Campus, has been named to the educational committee of Historic Bethlehem Museum & Sites (HBMS). We look forward to creating educational programming and a junior docent program with HBMS.
• Community Engagement: We will partner with HBMS to welcome MA families for a special Moravian Academy Family Day tour of the newly designated site on October 5, 2024.
• Funding and Resources: We may gain access to additional funding and resources to improve our facilities and programs.
• Global Connections: This designation connects us to a global network of World Heritage Sites, providing opportunities for international collaboration and exchange programs.
We are excited about the opportunities this designation brings to our community and look forward to the positive impacts it will have on our school and the broader Bethlehem area.
Swain Campus Shines with Remarkable Production of Annie Jr. Students Reflect on Identities For Fire Projects
This past spring, students on the Swain Campus showcased their dedication and creativity with a remarkable production of Annie Jr. The confident communication and stage presence of our students brought this beloved musical to life, capturing the hearts of audiences with a story of hope and perseverance. Directed by the talented Rip Cantelmi, Director of Dramatic Arts, this production not only celebrated the performing arts but also inspired pride within our community, affirming our tradition of excellence in education. Special thanks are extended to the parents, teachers, and community members who supported this endeavor, from creating stunning costumes and sets to managing technical aspects that ensured smooth performances.
The Class of 2027 completed their First-Year Independent Research Experience (FIRE) projects, exploring aspects of their identities. Students reflected on diverse topics like art, nature photography, and engineering as well as cultural backgrounds. The project culminated in written work, artifact creation, and peer discussions. This innovative program fostered community building and self-discovery, showcasing our ninth-graders’ ability to communicate collaboratively and confidently about their unique experiences and perspectives.

Sally Kohn ’95MA: Using Collaborative and Confident Communication to Fight for Social Change
By Michael Alayon ‘25
Sally Kohn ‘95MA exemplifies the transformative power of effective communication in shaping a more equitable world. Her journey from organizing grassroots movements to becoming an influential media personality and returning to her roots to mentor others exemplifies the power of clear, inclusive, and courageous communication to drive social change.
Sally’s passion for justice and fairness was nurtured from a young age by her “do-gooder parents.” This foundation guided her into activism, where she first honed her communication skills through internships and nonprofit work during her college years at George Washington University. These formative experiences taught her that
mobilizing people around a common cause relies not just on passion but on the ability to communicate effectively.
For the next 16 years, Sally worked tirelessly with organizations dedicated to social change, with a particular focus on advocating for women and LGBTQ+ youth. Her ability to communicate effectively, build relationships, and inspire others to take action became key assets in her efforts to drive progress. Whether advocating for policy changes or organizing grassroots movements, Sally understood that real change requires the collective power of many voices working together.
A pivotal moment in her career came in 2009 when a television producer approached her after a conference and offered her an opportunity to appear on TV.
Recognizing the potential to amplify her message through the media, she embraced this unexpected opportunity. “Turns out I was good at being a TV talking head,” Sally acknowledges. Sally’s media career flourished, leading her to become a frequent guest on CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News. Her clear articulation of complex ideas and commitment to her causes made her a prominent TV commentator and a respected advocate.
In April 2018, Sally published her first book, The Opposite of Hate, which explores the roots of hate and how to overcome division. Beyond television and writing, Sally’s influence extends to her role as a TED Curator. Her three TED Talks have been viewed more than six million times, further amplifying her message of unity and understanding. She is also a popular keynote speaker at business conferences and across college campuses, where she speaks on ending political division and preserving democracy by cultivating connection and belonging. Additionally, Sally serves on the Board of Contributors for USA Today and is a contributing editor to Afar magazine. Through these diverse platforms, Sally’s effective communication to foster unity and address division, solidified her role as a key advocate for social change.
Despite her success in the media, Sally remained committed to her roots in community organizing. After a decade in the spotlight, she returned to her organizing work, focusing on media training, public speaking coaching, and ghostwriting. This shift allowed her to combine her expertise in communication with her passion for mentoring others. “I get to think and help other people be in those spotlights. That’s what I find really rewarding,” she explains. Through this work, Sally continues to empower others to find their voices and effectively communicate their messages. “Effective communication is not as much what you say, but how you say it,” she advises. She also encourages her clients to embrace the nerves that often accompany public speaking. “Nerves signal that you care, and caring is a positive sign,” Sally says.
Reflecting on her time at Moravian Academy, Sally acknowledges the significant role the school played in shaping her communication skills and confidence. “My sense of myself as a strong writer, a capable writer, really started to grow at Moravian,” she recalls. From
her early days as a community organizer to her time in the media and her current role as a mentor, Sally has consistently used those writing skills to advocate for the marginalized and drive positive change. Her confident and collabortive communication style brings people together and inspires others to take action. Sally is an inspiring reminder that we all have the power to make a difference—if we find our voice, work together, and speak out for what is right.
Effective communication is not as much what you say, but how you say it, ... Nerves signal that you care, and caring is a positive sign” ”
BOYS’ TENNIS
Brian Yang ’25 scored the final point that sealed the Class 2A District 11 Team Championships title for Moravian Academy. “In that final game I really had the mindset that we were going to take this and get the win for the team,” said Yang, who was paired up with Harry Vicic ’25 at first doubles. “And that final point I knew I had to get the ball in and tapped it in right behind them. It was like a movie.”
The Lions won the match 3-1 with wins by both of their doubles teams, Yang/Vicic and Jackson Reid ’24/Hunter Zicherman ’25, and third singles freshman Max Abia ’27 cruising to a quick win. Aveer Chadha ’26 and Ford Koch ’24 won the District Doubles title, which also qualified them for the PIAA State Championship.

GIRLS’ LACROSSE
The Moravian Academy Girls’ Lacrosse season was a testament to hard work, fun, and determination. From the practices to games, the team put in countless hours of effort to improve their skills and build strong bonds. Despite the challenges they faced, their unwavering determination propelled them forward, resulting in a semi-final playoff appearance. Throughout it all, they never lost sight of having fun, celebrating each moment together, and fostering a positive team spirit. A special thanks to our seniors Rylin Becker ’24, Megan Dadio ’24, Tori Fegley ’24, Lena Guimes ’24, Izzy Tran ’24 and Gabby Truscott ’24 for their leadership. Go Lions!
BOYS’ LACROSSE
TRACK & FIELD
AJ Sasso ’24 continued his hot streak by winning gold in the 800m run at the District XI Track and Field Championship and finishing 8th at the PIAA State Championship. Joseph Phillips ’24 won his third straight gold medal in the 110m Hurdles at Districts, secured a bronze medal in the 300m Hurdles, and also qualified for States. Saleem Diakite ’24 earned a bronze medal in the 400m run at Districts and qualified for States. Valia Tsirukis ’24 performed well, finishing 7th in the 100m Hurdles at Districts and Roman Perrucci ’27 finished 15th in the 1600m run.
The Boys’ Lacrosse team continues to thrive with our relationship with Notre Dame of Green Pond. Coach Stitt and his team finished the season with a 6-10 overall record. The team did qualify and participated in the District XI team tournament losing to eventual champion Allentown Central Catholic.
BOYS’ VOLLEYBALL
A number of our boys embraced the newly created co-operative sponsorship with Notre Dame of Green Pond in Boys’ Volleyball. The team’s record was 3-11 for the season, but they were able to compete in the District XI team competition. With a large number of underclassmen, the team will look to build on this past season’s experience.
Leaving a Legacy Through an Endowed Fund
A named gift endowment may be started at Moravian Academy through a donation of $25,000 over a five-year period or in one lump sum. Alumni, parents, and friends are invited to show their appreciation of the school and to help the current and future students.
Currently, there are more than 130 named endowed funds at the school with purposes ranging from operating support, financial assistance, or faculty salary support to individual department or project support. When a donor comes forth with an idea for a named gift endowment, we meet with the donor to discuss how the donation supports the students and mission of the school. Once there is agreement on the name and purpose of the endowed fund, Moravian Academy helps to write a fund agreement so that we all understand how the funds will be used. Each year, 4% of the fund average over a 12-quarter time frame is used.
Within the last year, five new endowed funds have been started and have been added to Moravian Academy’s total endowment of more than $32 million. The new funds include:
• The Lynald E. and Danielle C. Silsbee Endowment Fund
• The Maran/Key Innovation and STEM Fund
• The Rebecca Binder Memorial Scholarship Fund
• The Samuel W. Thayer ’72 Endowed Fund
• The Deidre “Dee Dee” L. Rubic ’91 Financial Assistance Fund for Faculty & Staff
If you are interested in starting a fund at Moravian Academy, contact Bob Zaiser, Director of Institutional Advancement at bzaiser@mamail.net or Susan Parent, Director of Annual Giving and Special Campaigns at sparent@mamail.net
THE SAMUEL W. THAYER ’72 ENDOWED FUND was established in 2024. Samuel Thayer’s appreciation for education inspired this endowment to continue to support the greatest needs at Moravian Academy for the advancement and growth of its students and teachers. Money dispersed from the fund should support the intent of these ideals.
THE MARAN/KEY INNOVATION & STEM FUND was established in 2023 by Patricia Maran and Ilena Key. Technology, medicine, and science education are interests of both Patricia and Ilena, so this endowment fund is established to support the professional development of teachers interested in advancing Moravian Academy’s STEM and Innovation curriculum. It is meant to support research grants for educators interested in engaging in cutting-edge research, science explorations, and the application of their learning for students in the classroom. The fund is meant to foster the development of scientific inquiry by Moravian students from grades Pre-K through 12th grade. Through the refinement and evolution of inquiry, research, and personal learning programs encouraging hands-on, experiential learning, Moravian Academy students will learn from making mistakes within a nurturing, inclusive, and safe environment. Moneys dispersed from the fund should support the intent of these ideals as best fits the description above.
THE
LYNALD E. AND DANIELLE C. SILSBEE ENDOWMENT FUND
Established through a bequest by Lynald E. Silsbee in 2023, the Lynald E. and Danielle C. Silsbee Endowment Fund supports continuing education and enrichment of the school’s faculty. In 1981, Lynald E. Silsbee was named Headmaster of the Swain School where he served for 25 years, retiring in 2006 following a tenure that fundamentally altered the trajectory of the school. Lynald’s leadership style was fueled by kindness, and the impact that he achieved through kindness serves as an example for all.
THE REBECCA BINDER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Established in memory of Rebecca Binder by her family in 2023, the Rebecca Binder Memorial Scholarship Fund supports four students in need of financial assistance in grades one through twelve. Rebecca felt that her children, Benjamin Cohen ’11SS, and Leah Cohen ’16SS, would not be the people they are today without their experiences at the Swain School. Rebecca was also very supportive of the Swain-Moravian merger in 2020 and was extremely focused on ensuring that the school had the financial resources to support ALL students.
THE
DEIRDRE “DEE DEE” L. RUBIC FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FUND FOR FACULTY AND STAFF
The Deidre “Dee Dee” L. Rubic ’91 Financial Assistance Fund for Faculty & Staff was established in 2023. The annual withdrawal from this fund shall be used to support financial assistance for students of faculty or staff at Moravian Academy.
Honoring a Legacy: Dee Dee Rubic ’91 Endowment and Memorial
By Susan Parent
Life is beautiful but unpredictable. In June 2021, the Moravian Academy community lost Deidree “Dee Dee” Rubic ’91, much too young. In memory of Dee Dee’s life, her mother, Toni Rubic, established The Deidre “Dee Dee” L. Rubic ’91 Financial Assistance Fund for Faculty & Staff in 2023. The annual withdrawal from this fund shall be used to support financial assistance for students of faculty or staff at Moravian Academy.
Dee Dee made lifelong friends at Moravian Academy under the nurturing care of teachers and staff. This endowment was created in gratitude for the talent and kindness she enjoyed at Moravian.
“Dee Dee loved doing anything social with her friends. If there was an event at MA, she was there! She spent time with friends at school, on the bus, at dance, and on the phone,” explained Dee Dee’s mother.
Koula Kazista ’91, shared in her eulogy: “Dee Dee and I were best friends since the sixth grade. We met at Moravian Academy, a private school where neither one of us ever felt we quite fit in. Our grades were always subpar, not always up to the Moravian standards. But I don’t think that is why we really bonded. I think we just saw something in each other. I know for me I saw someone kind, caring, the best listener, and, man, was she a lot of fun.”
After graduating from Moravian in 1991, Dee Dee studied interior design at the University of Delaware, physical therapy at Jefferson, pharmaceuticals at St. Joseph’s University and worked for Merke for many years. Toni noted, “Moravian definitely gave her a lifetime love of learning.”
In the spring of 2023, the Rubic, Kazista, and Sossiadis families joined efforts to positively impact Moravian Academy and the ALK Cancer Foundation. They invited friends and family back to the Merle-Smith Campus and held a 5K Run/Walk to honor Dee Dee and raise funds for ALK cancer and the Moravian endowment. Additionally, Toni designed and funded a gathering area of bluestone benches, a table, and two plaques to provide a convenient and serene place for students on the Merle-Smith Campus.
The location of the remembrance in the science quad is meaningful. Koula recounts, “I was thankful that last week of Dee Dee’s life when I knew I would lose her, I got to tell her how I felt about her, my favorite moments of our life together - in high school, the first time she waited for me and asked to walk on the black path to Chemistry together, we ended up doing it every day, and I feel like that is when we became inseparable. There is something so liberating about loving someone and getting to tell them over and over.”
Dee Dee was curious and adventurous. “I think she appreciated my family life,” noted Koula. “Dee Dee loved the Big Fat Greek part of my life, the parties, my family, my culture. In 1994, we took a trip to Greece together. She wanted to experience my culture firsthand. This began her travel journey later in life, visiting places like Turkey, Egypt, and the Czech Republic.”
The Deidre “Dee Dee” L. Rubic ’91 Financial Assistance Fund for Faculty & Staff Endowment honors Dee Dee’s life and the contributions of her entire class. When you have a chance, please stroll through the science quad. A photograph plaque of the Class of 1991 reads, “Moravian is a place where lifetime friendships are formed.”

Please join us on Saturday, December 7, 2024, in the Athletic & Wellness Center during the John Donmoyer Memorial Classic as we honor our 2024 inductees for their incredible achievements on the fields and courts.
2014 BOYS SOCCER TEAM
In the fall of 2014, coach Bob Hartman’s Boys’ Soccer Team broke a 39 year drought by defeating District 7 runner-up and defending state champion Sewickley Academy 4-0 in the PIAA Class A championship at Hersheypark Stadium. This victory marked the first solo boys soccer crown for District 11 since 1975, highlighting the remarkable efforts of the athletes and the support from coaches and parents. The Lions’ defense, led by junior Tanner Shane ’16MA and senior Andrew Myers ’15MA, was impenetrable, with key contributions from fullbacks Avery Chapman ’16MA and Tom Bloxam ’16MA and goalkeeper Marshall Merwine-Hanyon ’15MA. Senior Ryan Peslis ’15MA, scored one goal and assisted another. Myers scored the second goal with a rebounded free kick, and additional second-half goals from Peslis and junior Phil Astolfi ’16MA, secured the decisive win.
KATHERINE “KATIE” HYLAND ’07
Katie Hyland ’07MA was a standout 3-sport athlete, excelling in basketball, field hockey, and softball. She became the school’s second-leading alltime female scorer in basketball with 1,274 career points, earned MVP honors three times, and received numerous All-Area and All-Tournament recognitions. In field hockey, Katie was a two-time MVP, making the AllColonial League and All-State teams, and leading her team to the state tournament her senior year. In softball, she was named MVP twice, and helped the team qualify for the District 11 playoffs all four years. After graduating, Katie attended Brown University, where she majored in Modern American History and played field hockey, earning the Rookie of the Year Award, serving as team captain, and securing her place in the record books for career points, goals, and assists. She went on to study at Boston College Law School and now practices at Ropes & Gray LLP in Massachusetts.
ROBERT “BOB” HARTMAN
Moravian’s most impactful Giving Day is coming up on Tuesday, December 3. On this day, and the weeks leading up to it, we encourage parents, alumni, faculty, and friends to make their most generous gifts or pledges for the year. When you do, all future solicitations cease; “Once and Done” is a motto we maintain for the rest of the year.
The choice of 4 Funds makes your gift targeted to reflect your interests. Choose from the Historic Downtown Fund, Merle-Smith Fund, Swain Fund, or the Moravian Fund (unrestricted).
Join this global generosity movement and unleash the power of community while transforming Moravian Academy. Bridging the tuition gap and maintaining excellence in education is a goal we must all strive to achieve. Thank you!
Bob Hartman was the Soccer Coach at Moravian Academy for 18 years until his retirement in 2020. Known for his disciplined approach, Bob was the architect of Moravian Academy’s championship boys soccer program. Over his 18 years coaching the boys and 10 years coaching the girls, he built a tradition of excellence, teaching hundreds of students to be dedicated student-athletes. His teams’ remarkable achievements include 5 Colonial League titles, 10 District XI titles, and 2 PIAA State championships. Bob was twice named Coach of the Year by the Pennsylvania Soccer Coaches Association and was selected as National Coach of the Year in 2014 by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. Reflecting on his relationship with players, Hartman emphasized trust and open communication, noting, “The boys knew I wasn’t their best friend -- I wasn’t going to let them get away with anything that’s for sure -- but someone they could definitely come and talk to.” His commitment to his players turned Hartman into a Lehigh Valley soccer figure, and former athletes consider playing for him an honor.

1955
Jean Bassett Hopkins ’55S enjoys life. She shared, “I love dancing, especially with my boyfriend. We follow a band that plays all 60’s music. (I was widowed in 2005, have two daughters and 6 grandchildren.) I do crafts, sew, paint projects and am always fixing something. I still mow the lawn, landscape, and clip bushes. I also love to decorate rooms with themes and my yard with fairy gardens and cute things placed around inside and outside. I live in Gerald Ford’s parent’s retirement home. People call me Jeanie out here in Michigan. PS My new friend is Susan Parent. I am so lucky!”
1957
Elaine Hockman ’57S - The idea of “retirement” is a mystery. I’m very busy with piano lessons, genealogy, gardening, and, most important, working again with a colleague from years ago on our environmental justice research and teaching. A third dog added to our collection ( a St. Bernard), a Dachshund mix and beagle mix also keep me very busy.

Ryan Mueller ‘94 writes, “Happy 4th of July (or Thanksgiving/New Year by the time this gets published) class of ‘94!”
The Fourth of July holiday was spent at my house north of Boston where I reside with my wife of twenty two years, Sarah, and our three children Jack (15), Abby (13) and Emma (11) along with Deborah (Nagel) Lichtman and Karen (Leverich) McGinis and respective families, among others. Yummy food was accompanied by refreshing pool time and yard game competition and most of all delightful company which entailed regaling old stories, sadly mostly embarrassing for me.
Ryan also reported that Deb lives in West Bloomfield, Michigan and recently punched her 24th year card at GM as a purchasing manager. Deb and her husband, Jay, of 7 years are enjoying 4 grandchildren, seeing
family and friends across the US, golf and cruising in spare time.
Karen had great news to share when she arrived, announcing that she recently married Ken McGinis and moved back to the Northeast to Bethel, CT from Raleigh, NC, with her daughter Charlotte Carr (10) to enjoy the four seasons again. Karen is a litigation consultant and is planning on retiring in the next couple of years. She enjoys being a super mom, cooking and telling lawyers they are doing a terrible job at managing big data.
In ending, Ryan conveyed, “it’s hard to believe that it’s been almost 30 years since we all matriculated. Here’s to everyone being happy and most importantly healthy, and how grateful we are to Moravian Academy as a springboard to lifelong friendships…damn we are getting old but it’s way easier with great friends by our side.”
1997

Shannon Brady ’10MA - “After 4 years of medical school, 3 years of residency and 3 years of fellowship I am finally done with my formal medical education! I started my first attending job as a Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician and an Assistant Professor at the
University of Utah and Primary Children’s Hospital this past July 2024 and could not be happier to be staying in Salt Lake City! Apart from finally completing training I am creating a niche in improving pediatric readiness of critical access hospitals across the rural Intermountain West using simulation and through didactic sessions. Outside of medicine, I am enjoying the endless biking, climbing and skiing of Utah and surrounding states with my partner, Steven, and spoiling my two nieces whenever I can in New Orleans!”

Since dating, we’ve both finished our undergrad as well as our masters degrees, I am in social work and
he thrives in the business and entrepreneurship world. We moved from Pittsburgh to Raleigh and have what our friends and family call “the zoo” which includes two cats, two dogs, and my axolotl I got freshman year with Doc Dee!” My bestie from MA since 7th grade, Mya Tucker, was also involved on the big proposal! She worked endlessly to make sure I was kept out of the loop and it was the proposal of my dreams!

I have accepted a post-graduation clerkship with the Honorable Michael J. Koury Jr. of Northampton County. I look fondly upon my experience at Moravian Academy, and will be forever grateful for the ways it prepared me for my future.
2021
Brooke Foran ’21MA - Imagine yourself balancing on the wooden bowsprit of a 127 year old schooner as she is ripping through the waves. Suspended directly over the cold water of the Atlantic, the canvas of the jib is billowed out around you, the wind of the world and the wood of the hull are singing in harmony with each other, and all that matters is that you are home there; in the sea. My passions lie in traversing the wide waters of the world, sailing, and preserving historic ships. I did just that for about 2 and a half years immediately following my
graduation from Moravian Academy in 2021. I began as a trainee aboard the schooner Brilliant (1932) the same summer I graduated. The next summer, I was a deckhand aboard the schooner Tyrone (1939), and by that fall and into summer 2023; I was a very jovial deckhand aboard the Grand Banks schooner ErnestinaMorrissey (1894). Now, I attend Maine Maritime Academy where I am pursuing my third mate’s unlimited tonnage license and a degree. The license will allow me to be a third mate of any vessel of any size- think cargo ships, tankers, RO/ROs, and all the rest of the merchant and research fleets. While I am after my merchant mariner credentials, I have not forgotten my love for and home upon old wooden boats. I spend whatever free time I have sailing and acting as student bosun aboard the Arctic schooner Bowdoin (1921). It is my plan to ship commercially for 3 to 6 months of the year then to restore and sail wood ships the rest of the time. I am now on the Training Ship State of Maine, aboard which I completed my first summer sea term with the Academy. Over 75 of the last days, we’ve sailed 10,669 nautical miles having just crossed the Atlantic twice to make it to and from the Mediterranean Sea.

Elizabeth “Betsy” Roberts, 82, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 22, 2024, at the Healthcare Center in Moravian Village in Bethlehem, PA. Born on February 2, 1942, in Richmond, VA, Betsy’s life was characterized by her warmth, generosity, and the joy she spread to everyone around her.
Betsy spent much of her young life in Richmond, apart from an early year in Brazil. She attended Saint Gertrude High School and was among the first women to graduate from the University of Richmond, Robins School of Business. After graduation, she studied and traveled abroad, including England, where she met her husband, Barnaby Roberts, former Headmaster of Moravian Academy 1998-2007.
Betsy devoted many years of service to Chestnut Hill Academy, Casady School, Moravian Academy, and the Episcopal Church. She volunteered with countless other organizations throughout the years, but her most cherished role was as a companion with the Society of Companions of the Holy Cross.
Betsy is survived by her beloved husband, Barnaby, who stood by her side in every chapter of their journey together; her children, Arianne Roberts (Sara) and Amanda Davis (William); her grandson, Adrian Thatcher Davis; her brothers Ernest Mathewson (Herta) and Robert Mathewson (Virginia), and brother-in-law, Henry (Anne) in England.

2023-2024 REPORT OF GIVING
MISSION
Moravian Academy nurtures the joyful spirit of each learner and empowers inclusive global citizens to think critically, communicate effectively, lead with integrity, and strive for excellence.
VISION
Immersed in a community that values creativity, curiosity, love, and understanding, our students seek to answer the questions: Who am I and who can I become?
Head of School’s Letter
DEAR MORAVIAN ACADEMY FRIENDS,
As I reflect on the past year, I am filled with immense gratitude for your unwavering support and generosity. The 2023-2024 Report of Giving highlights the profound impact our community’s contributions have had on our students and faculty.
Extraordinary achievements and transformative experiences have marked this year, all made possible by your philanthropy. From the innovative projects in our classrooms, to the enriching field trips that broaden our students’ horizons, to the successes on the athletic fields and theatrical stages, your support has been instrumental in making these opportunities for students a reality.
Every dollar donated, every hour volunteered at events like the Country Fair, the Golf Outing, the International Festival for All Families, or the Benefit for Moravian Academy has significantly enriched our school community. These vibrant events unite our diverse community. It is especially gratifying to see alumni return to Moravian for events or to volunteer their expertise to give back to the school. Even those who are in the far reaches of our country and the world, show up for alumni gatherings or zoom meetings. In these challenging times for independent schools and for colleges and universities, your support makes all the difference. The Report of Giving captures the collective impact of your generosity, illustrating how each contribution, whether big or small, helps to advance our mission of nurturing curious, creative learners.
I stand with you in partnership to build on our proud 283 year history of inspiring and transformative education.
My deepest gratitude,
Adrianne Finley Odell, Head of School
Board Chair’s Letter
DEAR MEMBERS OF THE MORAVIAN ACADEMY COMMUNITY,
I am pleased to share that in the 2023-2024 academic year, more than $3.2 million was raised through philanthropy for our school and three campuses. Your support provided critical funds for general operations, financial assistance, endowment growth, and several capital projects. Not only did our community support the school generously, but you also did with your time and talents.
Volunteers brought the sparkle to fundraising and friend-raising events, not only here in the Lehigh Valley but also throughout the nation. Our Benefit for Moravian was fully subscribed, as were our annual Country Fair and our Golf and Pickleball Outing. Alumni gathered in several cities throughout our country to reminisce with classmates and other alumni and to hear about the school today. When we gather to engage in shared experiences and recount special memories, our community grows even stronger– Community– it is one of our school’s core values and is evident each and every day at Moravian.
You make a difference, and we are grateful!

The Merle-Smith Society & The Swain Founder’s Society
Van and Kitty Merle-Smith, Honorary Alumni, arrived at Moravian in 1965 when Van became Chaplain of Moravian Seminary for Girls. Over the years, the Merle-Smiths served the Academy in numerous capacities - as parents, teachers, advisors, administrators, trustees and supporters, and the Upper School’s Merle-Smith Campus at Green Pond was named for them in 1985. The Merle-Smith Society was proudly founded in 1981 to give special recognition to our leadership donors ($1,000 and above annually) and to encourage others to join these dedicated, loyal and generous benefactors.
Gifts listed below are through direct contributions to the school. Support of the school through events is listed later in this Annual Report.

PARENT GIVING
Moravian Academy and its three campuses (Downtown, Swain, Merle-Smith), like other independent schools, relies heavily on the philanthropic leadership from its core supportersalumni, parents, and friends. Moravian parents have a vested interest: they are interested in their children having access to the best resources and experiences.
More than 60% of the current parents make a gift to the school each year outside of event participation or sponsorships.
Gifts of all sizes transform the Moravian experience, making it possible for us to develop and enhance the Academy’s academic and co-curricular programs, attract vibrant and capable students, maintain a superior faculty, and provide a unique and innovative environment for our students.

ALUMNI GIVING
For more than 280 years, Moravian Academy’s mission has empowered us to become limitless learners as we discover new ideas and create new self-expressions. We do more than check boxes; we celebrate the unique potential of every individual. Our path to academic excellence harnesses the teachable moments of both success and failure, as we explore the complexities of our world with curiosity, confidence, and compassion. Our commitment to courageous conversations means that we actively learn from and support the different identities we embody, we respect each other’s views, and we lead with head and heart. Immersed in an environment of love and understanding, our students answer the questions: Who am I and who can I become?
Through our three campuses including the Downtown, Swain, and Merle-Smith Campuses, alumni are strong supporters of this mission through many facets including the Annual Fund and additional giving. Almost 12% of our alumni support the school, which is almost twice the national independent school average.
The Benigna Cup is awarded each year at reunion to the Moravian alumni class (with more than 25 members) having the greatest percentage of alumni participation in the Annual Fund.

Individuals or companies paying Pennsylvania state taxes can direct their state taxes to Moravian Academy through the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC) or the Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit Program (OSTC). Pennsylvania individuals go through an SPE (Special Purpose Entity) such as the Central Pennsylvania Scholarship Fund.
By participating, Moravian Academy receives 100% of the tax liability to be used for scholarship funds, while participants save in Pennsylvania tax as much as 90% of the value of the gift. It’s safe, impactful, and easy to do.

ELLA KOVATS-BERNAT FUND FOR THE THEATER ARTS
The Ella Kovats-Bernat Fund for the Theater Arts is used to fill the needs of The Swain School that fall outside of Swain’s current performing arts budget. The Swain Campus incorporates programs in the school curriculum to develop positive self-image, creativity, courage, and leadership. The theater arts program, woven throughout the curriculum, is key to supporting the mission. Students have the opportunity as early as Kindergarten to perform, explore, and develop confidence through movement and personal expression. This long-standing tradition is integral to the Swain experience. This experience was embraced fully by Swain student, Ella Kovats-Bernat.
Ella Kovats-Bernat was well-loved at The Swain School. Her grateful spirit, wonderful sense of humor, and joy for life are missed in our hallways. First and foremost, Ella’s love was for the performing arts. As described by Lindsay Quinn, Director of the Theater Arts program: “Ella embraced every process of the theater program. Her enthusiasm was inspiring to her classmates and her teachers. She loved every part of performing and her connection to the process was contagious.” As a memorial to Ella, the Kovats-Bernat family started a fund in Ella’s memory to annually support the theater arts program. Ella’s dream was to become a theater arts teacher. Swain wanted to ensure the legacy of Ella’s memory, while also reinforcing the long-standing tradition of the performing arts at The Swain School.

Mentoring at Moravian is about building relationships. Students gain a valuable tool in their quest for knowledge outside of the classroom through connections with alumni.
In our Upper School, funding is provided to ensure one-on-one mentoring through our Post term projects, summer internships, college search and through our Comenius Projects and FIRE programs. Barriers to outside expertise and critical thinking are removed. Group mentoring occurs in our Middle and Lower School through alumni visits and video conferencing in classrooms, through the SCORE Middle School program of study, through our curriculum and to larger groups as alumni share their real life experiences in their fields of study, business interests, and passions. This program helps to establish Moravian Academy as a Center for Excellence in Independent Research.

PLANNED GIVING
THE NAOMI HAUPERT DE NEUFVILLE SOCIETY
The Planned Giving Committee of Moravian Academy established the Naomi Haupert de Neufville Society to recognize those alumni and friends who have provided for a gift to the school in their estate plans through a life income arrangement or by donating an insurance policy. The Society exemplifies the importance of bequest provisions and other planned gifts for Moravian Academy as well as expresses our appreciation to those individuals who make a planned gift in support of our mission.
The society is named in honor of Naomi Haupert de Neufville Boyer, Honorary Alumna, who began her career teaching English, French and history at Moravian Seminary for Girls in 1936. Miss Haupert became principal of the Seminary in 1940, continuing until 1950. In 1950, she married Dr. Albert de Neufville, a widower who had enrolled his daughter, Mely, in the Seminary two years earlier. Their daughter, Louise, was born in 1951. In 1958, Mrs. de Neufville resumed her career teaching French at Moravian Preparatory School where she taught until 1968. In 1965 she was named an honorary alumna of the Seminary and she eventually served as a member of the Moravian Academy Board of Trustees. Mely graduated from Moravian Seminary for Girls in 1956 and Louise graduated from Moravian Preparatory in 1969. The de Neufvilles were the first persons to establish a life income fund with Moravian Academy.

THERE ARE MANY WAYS IN WHICH MEMBERS OF THE MORAVIAN ACADEMY COMMUNITY MAY DONATE TO THE SCHOOL
GIFTS OF CASH
Personal checks, cash or credit/debit card transactions (American Express, MasterCard or VISA) are the most popular ways to make a gift to Moravian Academy and allow the donor an income tax deduction in the year the gift is made. Checks should be made payable to Moravian Academy.
GIFTS OF APPRECIATED PUBLICLY TRADED SECURITIES
Gifts of stocks or bonds, which are or will be readily marketable, may have important added tax benefits for the donor. The deduction for outright gifts of appreciated long-term securities (held more than 12 months) is equal to the fair market value of the securities on the date the donor relinquishes control of the assets to the school, and none of the appreciation is taxable for capital gains purposes. The school maintains an account for the transfer of securities; for account and contact information please visit the school’s website at www.moravianacademy.org. In addition, please notify the Institutional Advancement Office of the transaction.
GIFTS OF CLOSELY HELD STOCK
As with publicly traded securities, a gift of stock of a private corporation may allow the donor to avoid capital gains on appreciation of the stock, while attaining a tax deduction based on the stock’s fair market value. The donor may obtain an immediate tax deduction up to 30% of the adjusted gross income. If the gift exceeds 30%, the remainder of the deduction generally can be carried over for up to five years.
MATCHING GIFTS
There are many companies that match their employees’ gifts to independent schools. For example, if a donor gives $5,000 to Moravian Academy, a matching gift company will also give $5,000 to the school and thus the donor is credited with a $10,000 gift. Some companies will even match gifts on a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio. Donors simply need to contact their human resources offices for the appropriate forms and forward them with their gifts to the Institutional Advancement Office for completion.
GIFTS OF REAL ESTATE/TANGIBLE PROPERTY
Property may be donated outright. An immediate tax deduction is available and capital gains taxes may be avoided. As per the school’s Gift Acceptance Policies, such gifts may only be accepted upon approval of the Finance Committee.
PLANNED GIFTS
Other forms of giving, such as deferred gifts, are acceptable and may offer qualified donors an attractive alternative, enabling them to significantly increase the level of their gifts. A transfer of assets to a gift or trust entity that can pay income to a named beneficiary or possibly shift assets to children or grandchildren may allow a donor to make a substantial gift to Moravian Academy while meeting personal financial objectives. The donor may gain immediate tax advantages or may reduce gift or estate taxes through one of these gift arrangements.
EITC
Direct your PA state taxes to Moravian Academy. It’s simple, legal, and impactful! Everyone should consider this. See Bob Zaiser for more information.
Donors should consult their tax advisors concerning the treatment of these and other specialized gift techniques as they may vary depending upon individual circumstances.
