Gift Planning
Andover’s gift planning office is ready to help alumni, parents, faculty, and friends with their gift planning needs. With more than 20 years of combined planned giving experience, the team helps donors understand the tax and income benefits for themselves, as well as their heirs.
David Flash, the director of gift planning, has been with the Academy since 2001. Prior to his arrival, David was the deputy director of gift planning at Harvard University’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences. He is quite familiar with the independent school environment; he was a faculty child at Loomis Chaffee—his alma mater—where his father served on the faculty for more than 30 years.
Assistant director of gift planning, Connie Pawelczak, arrived at Andover in 2008. She previously served as a planned giving officer for the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. No stranger to academia, Connie has worked at Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall School in Waltham, Mass., and was a teacher as well as manager at Digital Equipment Corporation for many years.
Jennifer Sunoo ’95, assistant, joined the department in 2009. She has extensive experience working in and with the philanthropic and nonprofit sectors. Jennifer is a graduate of Phillips Academy and Smith College in Northampton, MA. She grew up in the town of Andover, where she currently lives with her husband.
