Why I Became a Keystone Society Member

I am Rosemary Bray and I am NOT an orthodontist; however, I’ve been a part of the orthodontic specialty for more than 50 years. A few years ago, I decided to become a member of the Keystone Society by adding the AAOF to my estate plan. There are three reasons that I made this decision:

First, I want to ensure that the specialty of orthodontics remains a specialty—that’s what’s great about the work we do.

Second, I have six grandchildren who are all having orthodontic treatment or have already completed it. Someday their children may need it, and I want their orthodontists to have the best possible education and training that we can provide. The AAOF supports education and research through its Awards Program.

And the third reason that I am an AAOF Keystone Society member is because the specialty has been great to me, and this is a wonderful way that I can say “Thank you” back to orthodontics.

I hope you will join me in including the AAOF as a beneficiary in your estate plan to ensure that your legacy shows your passion for orthodontics.

You can join Rosemary in ensuring orthodontics remains a specialty with a gift in your will or estate plan. Contact AAO Foundation at 800.424.2841 or aaof@aaortho.org for assistance.
