Join the Helen Smith Society

There was never a hair out of place on Helen Smith from her white gloves to her pillbox hats. She met Charlotte Perry at Smith College. She and Charlotte were best friends. She was the only one who could help Charlotte and Portia see the other person’s side and made all people feel important and heard. Her ability to moderate situations became a critical element in helping camp run smoothly. She was the dash between Portia and Charlotte, the glue that held camp together.

The Helen Smith Society honors her legacy by naming our monthly giving society in her name. This recognizes that monthly givers are the “glue” that ensures the ongoing success of Perry-Mansfield.

Donors who choose to support Perry-Mansfield with a monthly contribution receive certain benefits based on their monthly giving level.
