WORKING TOGETHER ALWAYS WORKS The Cooper Institute®
Meyer Society
Our founding trustee, Fred Meyer, believed in the power of fitness and invested deeply. Named in his honor, Meyer Society Planned Giving celebrates his legacy of stewardship by giving others the opportunity to invest in the future of our research through estate plan gifts. The Meyer Society Lecture Series highlights this opportunity as part of an engaging discussion on the future of public health and research. At this year’s lecture Margaret Spellings, President and CEO of Texas 2036, discussed how raising a healthy workforce is critical to the future success of the Texas.
